Match report: Arsenal 4-1 Rapid Vienna

By Rob Kelly

WHAT HAPPENED

We marked an historic occasion at Emirates Stadium on Thursday night with a fine, flowing performance to beat Rapid Vienna in front of 2,000 fans.

It had been 271 days since our supporters were last inside Emirates Stadium, and while we were only allowed to grant access to just a fraction of the capacity, this felt very special.

With stringent safety measures in place, those Arsenal fans lucky enough to be in the ground made their presence felt with a vocal performance that gave the impression of a much larger crowd.
