Arsenal walked to a comfortable 2-0 win over Sevilla in its Champions League match.

Arsenal barely broke a sweat as they rebounded from the controversial 1-0 loss to Newcastle in the league to record a 2-0 win over Sevilla at the Emirates Stadium in its fourth Champions League match of the group stage.

The win puts the Gunners right on the brink of qualifying for the knockout rounds, and such was the way Arsenal won, it was superb watching.

In the Champions League, to keep a team to just a single shot on goal for the entire match is some effort, and the Gunners did it at a canter.

Now, with some breathing room at the top of Group B, Arsenal can secure its progression into the knockout round by defeating Lens at the Emirates in their next Champions League match.

The Gunners have won three of their four games and are four points clear at the summit of their group.

Arsenal gets the chance to build on the Sevilla win when Burnley, who have just one win on the season, visit the Emirates at the weekend in the league.
