A brave Arsenal side held on to their half-time lead to record a 2-1 victory over Olympiacos in their Champions League Group F encounter on Wednesday. Chelsea did not enjoy such luck at the Mestalla against Valencia in Group E, after Frank Lampard's second-half strike was cancelled out three minutes from time by Roberto Soldado from the spot. Lionel Messi scored twice as Barcelona claimed their second consecutive 5-0 win and three points in Group H after outclassing hosts BATE Borisov in Minsk. Also in Group H, AC Milan had to work hard to dispatch Viktoria Plzen at the San Siro, waiting until the 53rd minute until Zlatan Ibrahimovic finally broke the deadlock from the penalty spot.Review
