Champions League Results: Defeats for Arsenal and City

It was another glum night for Arsene Wenger

Manchester City's miserable Champions League run continued in Dortmund, whilst Arsenal's recent poor form shows no signs of abating...

There were defeats for both English clubs in tonight's final Champions League group games.

Arsenal still had top spot to play for in Group B, and despite starting the game against Olympiakos with a much-changed side they deservedly took the lead towards the end of the first half, Tomas Rosicky finishing from close range after some good work from Gervinho.

But the Gunners were poor in the second half and goals from Giannis Maniatis and Kostas Mitroglou won the game for the Greek outfit, who touched a high of 9.417/2 In-Play to win the game.

Rosicky was matched at 25.024/1 in the First Goalscorer market, whilst the 2-1 Correct Score was backed at 13.5n/a.

By finishing second in their group Arsenal will avoid the likes of AC Milan and Real Madrid in the knock-out stages, but there is a strong possibility they could be handed a last-16 tie with either Barcelona or Bayern Munich.

The Gunners are available to back at 34.033/1 in the Champions League Winner market.

Manchester City became the first English club not to win a single group game as they crashed out of Europe all together after defeat in Germany.

Some of the City players looked as if they had their minds on Sunday's huge Manchester derby rather than trying to qualify for the Europa League, though if truth be told, with no 120 mile long Russian traffic jams to contend with on a Thursday evening, the defending Premier League champions are now in a good position to retain their crown.

Julian Schieber - backed at 12.011/1 in the First Goalscorer market - got the only goal of the game; the 1-0 Correct Score being matched at 12.5n/a In-Play.
