Play by play
- 90'
It was all too easy for the Gunners, they barely had to break sweat and advance courtesy of Thierry Henry's brace. Bring on Friday.
- 90'
And that's full-time
- 90'
One minute to be added on
- 89'
Henry finds Vieira 25 yards out, he shapes for the shot, but it's a disguise to feed it through for Kanu - only the Nigerian is shying away from the shot and the ball runs through to Caceres
- 88'
Velasco plays a neat ball over the top for Pinilla, he's unmarked and has a great chance for a consolation - but nods it inches wide of the post
- 87'
Reyes brings down Vagner, free-kick in the centre circle
- 86'
Lauren finds Kanu in the box, he gets it stuck under his feet a little and then drops t the floor rather easily under Valasco's challenge - never a penalty
- 85'
Arsenal now seem to be happy to play through to full time against the ten-men of Celta Vigo
- 84'
Free-kick to Celta on the right, Jesuli takes only for Campbell to head to safety
- 83'
It runs through to Kanu, who in turn finds Gilberto. The Brazilian sees the run of Ljungberg, picks him out - but the Swede heads wide when in an unmarked position
- 82'
This time it's Henry, and Cavallero has to punch clear from under his own crossbar
- 81'
Corner to Arsenal on the right. Reyes goes over to take and aims for back stick - Caceres heads behind for another corner
- 80'
Mostovoi tries to chase a long ball - Toure intelligently guides it behind for a goal-kick
- 79'
Cole's down injured, after being blocked off by Mostovoi, but Gary Lewin is on again. He'll be okay
- 78'
A final change for the Gunners as Nwankwo Kanu is introduced for Dennis Bergkamp
- 77'
Sergio took a crack on the back of the head in that move - Cavallero laying one on him! He needs some treatment
- 76'
Corner to Arsenal on the right. Reyes takes, Cavallero punches and Jesuli hacks to safety
- 75'
Reyes is cynically blocked by Contreras - he's already been booked and referee Collina has no option but to produce the red card. An early bath for the substitute
- 74'
It only comes as far as Ljungberg 35 yards out, and he tries the first time lob over the top - but gets it all wrong. Goal-kick
- 73'
Gilberto puts Henry through the centre, it looks as though he's going to have the chance for a third but Cavallero is out of his box smartly to clear
- 72'
A final change for Celta, as Rogerio Vagner is on for Gustavo Lopez
- 71'
Henry takes the corner, Gilberto wins the header but is penalised for a shove
- 70'
Arsenal make a change before the corner. Edu is replaced by Gilberto Silva, and Jose Antonio Reyes is introduced for Robert Pires
- 69'
Henry bursts foward and forces Sergio to put it behind for a corner
- 68'
...but Lopez gets it all wrong and blasts way, way wide
