Arsenal finally suffered a defeat this season as an under strength side fell to a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Sevilla.
Sevilla vs Arsenal goals Champions League
Arsenal took the lead through Eduardo da Silva, but goals from Seydou Keita and Luis Fabiano put Sevilla 2-1 up at half-time, and Frederic Kanoute sealed the win with a late penalty. In the other Group H game, Slavia Prague secured UEFA Cup qualification with a 1-1 draw at Steaua Bucharest.
Despite being without a host of first-choice players at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pijuan, Arsenal settled quickly into their familiar passing rhythm and with barely ten minutes on the clock they were ahead.
Eduardo brought down Nicklas Bendtner’s cross from the right and held off a rather clumsy challenge from Daniel Alves before directing the ball past Andres Palop.
