Arsenal 3-0 Rennes (Agg 4-3): Report, Ratings & Reaction as Gunners Reach Europa League Last 8

Arsenal recorded a famous European comeback as they beat Rennes 3-0 at the Emirates Stadium to progress to the Europa League quarter finals on Thursday night.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang gave Arsenal some early hope with a goal after just four minutes, when Aaron Ramsey was found by Ainsley Maitland-Niles, who in turn found the Gabon international with a cute low cross, who did the rest from a few yards out.

And all three were involved again when the Gunners notched their second. Aubameyang broke down the left flank then cut the ball inside to Ramsey, who looked to initially put Sead Kolasinac in with a ball in behind, but the Bosnian knew he was offside so didn't play for the ball.
