Arsenal still have a tough task on their hands if they are to progress to the Champions League group stages.

They drew nil-all with Besiktas last night in the first leg of their Champions League play-off in Istanbul.

An ill-tempered affair saw both Aaron Ramsey and Besiktas coach Slaven Bilic sent off, so both will now miss the second leg in London next week.

Both sides had chances to win the game, with the Gunners coming closest when Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain hit the post late on.

The tie's still on a knife edge heading into the second leg at the Emirates Stadium next week.
