A great piece of entertainment, that. Dortmund indeed deserved at least a point but Arsenal will rue not holding on for the final minutes. It was a stunning leveller, mind. Positives for Arsenal: the fighting spirit shown, Arteta shining and Van Persie scoring once more. Dortmund are definitely ones to watch this Champions League season. Oh, and Goetze, he lived up to his billing.

Dortmund laying on the pressure. Big two minutes for the Gunenrs. Just seen two shouts for a penalty turned down, ref having none of it, despite handball claims.

Massive save. Massive. Szczesny dives at the feet of Lewandowski who was set to score from inside the box.

What. A. Goal. A free-kick is cleared but Perisic hits the dropping ball first time. It is a brilliant volley, dropping into the top corner with the keeper rooted. Stunning.

Goetze slices one wide. Dortmund's build-up play has been spot-on, but their finishing woeful.

How have Dortmund not scored?! A corner finds its way to the feet of Subotic, who toes from just a few yards out. He strikes straight at the keeper. What a let-off.

Oh dear. The free-kick is cleared and Blaszczykowski tries his luck with an ambitious volley. Needless to say it drifts wide harmlessly.

Free-kick in an interesting area for Dortmund after Arteta caught Goetze.

Koscielny just dinked a lovely-looking ball in for Van Persie, who was flagged marginally offside. Was clean through otherwise.

Kagawa just had a dipping volley effort from range. Whistled over after sitting nicely for him.

Fabulous break from Dortmund but a whipped ball in from the right finds no-one.
