Arsenal v Ludogorets - The story so far

By Rob Kelly at Emirates Stadium

SUMMARY

Two fine strikes from Alexis and Theo Walcott have put Arsenal in charge at the interval of their Champions League clash against Ludogorets.

SETTING THE SCENE

Arsenal came into the first of back-to-back games against the Bulgarian champions in fine fettle, with an inviting opportunity to take control of Group A.

Ludogorets had never won away in the Champions League, and had only one victory in the competition in their history, a record that offered encouragement to in-form Gunners if they could take their chance.
