Play by play
But Arsenal can take heart. They were so close. Milan march on and quarter-final opponents will not be too fearful of the Serie A leaders.
If there was a moment that it turned, it was RVP's chance when he was six yards out and chipped the ball into Abbiati's hands.
The first-half was full of hope and some incredible scenes. Arsenal were on the verge of turning everything around, but Milan shut up shop in the second and dropped the Gunners out.
