Arsenal vs Porto – Champions League LIVE RESULT: David Raya the hero as Gunners reach the quarter finals after penalties

DAVID RAYA was the hero as Arsenal reached the last eight of the Champions League via a penalty shootout.

In a nervy game in north London, in which the Gunners trailed 1-0 after the first leg, Leandro Trossard‘s superbly worked goal brought them back on level terms.

Arsenal dominated possession and chances during the 90 minutes and thought they had done enough to earn a victory but Martin Odegaard‘s goal was controversially ruled out for a foul by Kai Havertz in the build up.

The game went into extra-time but neither side seemed willing to commit men forward – before the game headed to a shootout.

David Raya, the villain in the first leg, was the hero as he made two brilliant save down to his left – to deny Wendell and Galeno – with all the Arsenal takers hit the target to progress into the last eight.

The Gunners are now into the Champions League draw later this week.
