Barcelona vs Arsenal, Champions League: Goals from Neymar, Suarez and Messi see off Gunners:

That's your lot

But there's another game going on! Bayern vs Juventus has gone to extra time so why not head over there for lots of late drama?

Ian Wright's thoughts

Wright reckons that if Arsenal come third or fourth Wenger has to go. "The natives have turned - more want him out than in."
Interesting, and probably not inaccurate from Wright.

Wenger speaks

"The performance was good - it was a great game - we go out with regrets but they have exceptional quality up front and can take advantage of any mistake.
"I felt we were wobbling a bit at 1-1 and they took advantage
"It is difficult to take to go out but well done to them, we wish them well.
On Iwobi penalty claim: "I don't know if he was touched. Overall I think the referee had a good game"
On substitutions: "I wanted to protect Danny Welbeck - he has had some problems recently."

That penalty shout

 They are still discussing Alex Iwobi's first half penalty shout, which Howard Webb maintains should have been a penalty as "Mascherano has a duty of care" not to touch the striker.
I agree - it should have been a pen. Mascherano doesn't mean it but it impedes the striker. Gary Lineker isn't so sure.
