| Arsenal were hit by a stoppage-time equaliser as AZ Alkmaar
earned a draw in tonight's Champions League Group H clash.
Cesc Fabregas' first-half strike had looked to be enough to secure
a third straight European victory, which would have all but secured
Arsenal a place in the knockout stages. However, the Dutch side,
managed by Ronald Koeman, refused to give up and snatched a point
at the death through Mendes Da Silva.
The fact AZ remained resilient should have come as no surprise
given they had previously lost just once at home in Europe, against
Everton two years ago, from 34 games.
