My guys from Arsenal hung on to defeat Celtic 3-2. The Gunners jumped out to a huge 3-0 lead then hung for dear life to beat the never die, never give Scottish side Celtic.
Arsenal rung up the cash register three times before Celtic knew what hit them.

Mate Theo Walcott set this baby up with a great cross right into the teeth of the goalmouth.
Gunners Bacary Sagna long-range salvo from just outside the box ripped the twines in the 45th minute.
In the 51st, minute Samir Nasri nailed a zinger from dead center of the box to give us a 3-0 lead then all hell broke loose in the final twenty-one minutes.
In a span of 12 minutes, Celtic almost pulled a rabbit out of their hat.
A dumb take down by Jack Wilshere in the 69th gave the Scottish side hope.
Georgios Samaras stepped up to the PK spot.
Shank big time right over the top of the cross bar was the difference in the match.
Daryl Murphy hit for pay dirt in the 73rd minute and Ki Sung Yueng ripped the twines in the 82nd minute for the final score 3-2 Arsenal.
Celtic almost pulled it out but they missed it by that much.
