| Cesc Fabregas' reign as Arsenal captain began with a 1-0 win
over Dynamo Kiev at Emirates Stadium tonight which guided his Gunners
into the knockout stages of the Champions League.
The 21-year-old Spaniard has pledged to take the club "as
far as it can go" after being handed the armband to succeed
deposed William Gallas, stripped of the role following a public
outburst criticising the squad's fighting spirit.
And while tonight's display may not have been vintage Arsenal -
victory eventually secured by a late strike from substitute Nicklas
Bendtner from a quickly-taken long free-kick by Fabregas |
