Play by play

  1. 90'

    Lehmann swoops on Henry's delivery... and that's it at the Westfalenstadion. Full-time and Arsenal go down to their fourth consecutive 2-1 defeat, but still progress to Phase Two along with the victorious hosts tonight

  2. 90'

    Still time for another Arsenal attack - corner on the right. Reuter half clears, Toure swings a shot - deflected behind...

  3. 90'

    Seaman out again to collect

  4. 90'

    Final throw of the dice from Campbell, launching the ball long for Henry. Worns intercepts though and Dortmund work it to Dede on the far side. Corner

  5. 90'

    Heinrich goes down on the right. Freekick swung in by Frings and Seaman is out to claim two-handed

  6. 90'

    Toure loses control - Dortmund throw on the right. Four minutes to be added.

  7. 89'

    Sammer looks to waste a few more seconds in bringing on defender Madouni, replacing the outstanding Rosicky

  8. 88'

    Miscontrol by Metzelder and Ljungberg is there again. This time he finds Henry in the area, but the shot is pulled wide

  9. 87'

    Now Kanu finds Henry, speeding down the left. Ljungberg makes a trademark run into the box, but his team-mate's cross is poor (another left-footer)

  10. 86'

    Kanu causes trouble in the air. The ball ricochets off Dede and Ljungberg is lurking in the box - but the loose ball just slides beyond his reach. Lehmann swoops

  11. 85'

    Heinrich replaces Ricken

  12. 84'

    Toure surges forward, finding Cole overlapping, but the fullback's cross loops beyond the crossbar to safety

  13. 83'

    Frings taps back for his keeper to hoof clear

  14. 82'

    Lehmann clears under pressure from Henry. Ljungberg picks up the clearance and Dede tracks back to concede the throw

  15. 81'

    Edu replaces compatriot Gilberto in Wenger's last substitution

  16. 80'

    Henry takes. Kanu's at the near post - heading just wide with Lehmann stationary

  17. 79'

    The Nigerian immeadiately finds Gilberto wide on the right and Arsenal win a corner

  18. 78'

    Wiltord leaves the field, replaced by Kanu

  19. 77'

    Reuter lunges at Ljungberg. Referee Gonzalez plays advantage, but none accrues and the yellow card is eventually flourished

  20. 76'

    Cole goes down awkwardly in a 50-50 challenge with Ricken. Not too serious though, and the England fullback is soon back on after some attention

  21. 75'

    Evanilson gives it away - Henry seizes the chance to burst forward but his left-footed cross floats harmlessly into Lehmann's hands

  22. 74'

    Frings, seekign revenge, hammers the freekick straight at the Arsenal wall and the Gunners clear

  23. 73'

    Rosicky overhits it, but Dortmund conjure a shooting chance for Reuter, 20 yards out. A great block by Vieira, who then follows up with his studs showing on Frings. It's getting a little tetchy

  24. 72'

    Cole has to be sharp again as Dede's cross reaches Rosicky at the far post. Corner

  25. 70'

    Reuter's first contribution is an overhit ball for Evanilson. Cole hurls the throw down the wing, where Vieira seems to take a little dig at Frings, but nothing much comes of it
