Arsenal Unleashed

Big European games inspire a special kind of atmosphere. They also demand a performance to match.

Tasked with overturning a 2-1 deficit from the first leg, Arsenal responded emphatically at the Emirates.

Andrey Arshavin relentlessly tormented the Porto defence; Alex Song put in an all action performance at the heart of the midfield; and a lethal Nicklas Bendtner scored a hat-trick to help send the Gunners through.

A 5-0 win speaks for itself.

Has this performance sent out a warning sign to the rest of Europe?
