Dortmund were considered favorites to defeat Arsenal in Germany last night as their record at home has been fantastic.
However, against all odds, gunners were able to take their chance and win the game to remain on top of the group.
Napoli on the other hand won their fixture versus Marseille which means they are level on points with Arsenal leaving Dortmund in a difficult situation.
The German club perhaps have to win both their matches to qualify for the last 16 of the competition.
Arsenal were not all dominating like they did against Liverpool. In fact, Jurgen Klopp’s men were doing to Arsenal what gunners did to Reds.
They created chance after chance especially in the second half but were either denied by Arsenal’s solid defense or were wasteful.
Gunners player of the season so far, Ramsey had other ideas though. The Welsh international is everywhere as it seems and once again netted the winner for the North Londonders.
The goal came completely against the run of play when Dortmund were dominating and after taking the lead, Arsenal made sure they kept clean sheet as they parked the bus late on.
Another difficult test awaits next weekend as Arsenal visit Old Trafford on Sunday.

My prediction was right that Arsenal could make the fans happy with a win after the return match against Dortmund in Germany. Arsenal played well especially in defence of quick attack from Dortmund’s strong striking force. Keep the team working together for the Sunday’s match against Man U as confidence among the players are growing stronger with the inclusion of Walcot and Poldoski for the EPL match.
This was a team effort that played a very strategic game and teh Prof won. We let them play, but pounced when it mattered. A very tactical game by teh Gunners. Arteta can not be a mere 4.5 as he was one of teh motm, esp with Ramsey having a more attack minded intent. Cheers.
Anthony you have been watching a different game
Arteta was our worst player by far. Could have seen red. Was quality with Liverpool but BvBs pace was too much to handle for him. Mkhitaryan Reus troubled him all game
Arteta should be around 7because he anchored the midfield with alot of experiance
