Manchester United edged past Arsenal after an own goal by Abou Diaby broke the deadlock at one goal a piece. Arshavin scored for the travelling Gunners on 40 mins with one heck of  screamer. Things were levelled by Wayne Rooney when he made no mistake from the penalty spot subsequent to being brought down by Almunia.

Arsenal managed a 3-1 victory over Celtic in last night’s UEFA Champions League qualifying round, recording a 5-1 win on aggregate.

Goals came from a controversial 28th minute penalty awarded to the home side which was converted by Eduardo with contributions from Eboue and Arshavin in the 2nd half at the Emirates. Celtic only managed a reply nearing full time.

The win sends the Gunners through to the group stages of the UEFA Champions League finals. For video ……
