Arsenal scrape through to Champions League knock-outs after 2-0 defeat in Naples.
Gonzalo Higuain could have been playing for Arsenal this season if things had worked out differently in the summer but, as it was, the Argentine was left in tears after facing the Gunners for Napoli last night, despite scoring in a 2-0 win.
With Borussia Dortmund netting a late winner in Marseille to leap to the top of Champions League group F, Napoli needed to win by three goals to progress ahead of Arsene Wenger’s side on goal difference.
But Rafa Benitez’s talented team left it too late and, despite Higuain’s fine 73rd minute strike and Jose Callejon’s goal with the last kick of the game, it wasn’t enough to see them qualify for the next round, leaving Higuain distraught.
