Never in doubt!!
We were always going to win at least two of the last four matches to be able to finish second. So there was a 50%.chance that one would be tonight.

It'll either be a win and two draws or two wins and a loss from the last three matches, so possibly a draw in the reverse fixture too.

It's a goal, not game over Darke.

Neuer almost had the two greatest saves ever then.

Cech, Bellerin, Koscielny and Monreal all at least 9/10 tonight.

Yes it went in! Amazing play from Bellerin. What a right back we have. Potential to be a top top player.

Proud of the boys tonight. Great win against a great team.

Wow, wow, wow! We beat them. We weren't embarrassed. We gave a good solid quality account of ourselves. Well done Arsenal!

Well done! If we play in the return leg like we did tonight we can get a draw or even beat them
We may not make 2nd though

What a cracking game of football.

Imagine if Ozil's was the winner, with 10 seconds to go

Great by Giroud too, I can't for the life of me see why he comes in for so much stick, he does things that no one else can in our squad.

We've got to get something in Germany because Olympiakos are highly likely to be on 9pts after MD4.

If they lose in Munich it would mean a two goal win in Piraeus probably to get through.

A point in Munich would probably mean any win in Greece would do.

Still alive though

Great result! Defense was immense, Bellerin and Monreal were superb!

Would have liked to see a bit more pressure on the ball, but perhaps that would have been a mistake. Can't fault ODL, would be unfair...

What's the name of our chef??

@__arsenalnews_:

Laurent Koscielny gets home and empties out his pockets:

Car keys
His phone
Wallet
And Robert Lewandowski

What tonight probably defines is if they don't get through its probably Europa league rather than out completely

Not as bad as the pundits make it sound. We'll just play the Carling Cup team.

Amazing victory. I wonder if it might have been different if Cech had started the other games.

No doubt. He wouldn't have made the mistake that Ospina made so at least a draw in that game. It's not just his saves, his presence gives the defence more confidence and security.

Ospina wasn't the reason why we lost the previous game.

But the team wouldn't have been 2-0 down with Cech in goal.

The defence's shape and concentration was all over the place. Arsenal had plenty of chances to win.
