Yet with CSKA two goals to the good, courtesy of close-range efforts from Fedor Chalov and Kirill Nababkin, and chasing the decisive third blow that would have seen Arsenal eliminated in the most remarkable fashion, the Premier League club found salvation in the http://www.officialsanaheimducks.com/Adidas-Julius-Nattinen-Jersey shape of Danny Welbeck. Relief coursed through Wenger, his staff and the Arsenal players after the England forward scored 15 minutes from time to give them the breathing space that they so badly needed. 
By the time Aaron Ramsey sprinted clear of the CSKA defence to add a second, deep into injury time, Arsenal were no longer on the path to self-destruction and the 300 or so travelling supporters could celebrate the prospect of a first European semi-final in nine years. To say that Arsenal made hard work of things, however, barely does it justice. This was a desperately poor performance from an Arsenal team who seemed to be sleepwalking their way through the game for long periods. There was so little conviction and intensity about their approach – they failed to register a shot on target in the opening 45 minutes – and a sense of panic set in from the moment CSKA took the lead. Arsenal were toothless until Welbeck scored, overrun in midfield and an accident waiting to happen at the back, where Petr Cech also endured a difficult night. The Arsenal goalkeeper was far from alone in that respect, however, and it was alarming to see a limited CSKA Moscow side cause so many problems. Yet all that matters for Wenger http://www.officialusahockeystore.com/Usa_Cam_Fowler_Jersey_Shirt.htmland his players now is that Arsenal’s hopes of winning the Europa League remain alive – leaving the door open to qualifying for the Champions League next season – and that next month’s final in Lyon is one step closer, with the draw for the semi-finals taking place in Switzerland on Friday and Atlético Madrid the team to avoid. Whoever Arsenal face next, Patrick McCaw Jersey they will have to play far better than they did here. “I feel that maybe we were a bit surprised by the intensity and not at the races in the first half,” Wenger said. “They scored the second and even then they have another chance to make it three. “Then we were a bit on the ropes but we had a good response. If you look at the game we were in trouble but once we moved to a five [at the back] we looked much more stable and didn’t give so many chances away. We have players who can always score and once we scored the first it was a big blow for them and they didn’t recover from that.” The onus had been on CSKA to take the game to Arsenal because of the 4-1 deficit from the first leg, yet that rarely looked like happening in a drab opening half Mike Bibby Authentic Jersey hour in which the noise created by the partisan home supporters was far more impressive than anything their players produced on the pitch. wholesale jerseys wholesale jerseys cheap jerseys chinawholesale nfl jerseys cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys from china wholesale nfl jerseys from china
