UCL REVIEW: ARSENAL, CHELSEA PROGRESS TO ROUND OF 16


Olivier Giroud scored a hat-trick, as Arsenal defeated Olympiakos 3-0 in Greece, to book their place in the last 16 of this season’s Champions League.

The Gunners needed to win by two clear goals or a high-scoring margin, to qualify and Arsene Wenger’s men did in fine style.

Chelsea also took off some pressure from manager Jose Mourinho, as they beat his former team FC Porto 2-0 at home, to also enter the knockout stages.

Bayern Munich won 2-0 away at Dinamo Zagreb, Barcelona drew 1-1 with Bayer Leverkusen, while Roma drew 0-0 with BATE Borisov.

In the other matches, Gary Neville lost his first match as Valencia boss, as Lyon beat them 2-0 at the Metsalla and Gent defeated Zenit 2-1.
