Mohamed Elneny had raised the slimmest of hopes that Arsenal could salvage their Champions League tie with Barcelona.
The Egyptian bagged a memorable first goal for the club, leaving them in sight of an unlikely comeback.

All of a sudden, Arsenal were creating chances and their tails were up.
But, much like their title challenge, as soon as things started to look good, they were brought back down to earth with a bump.
Luis Suarez restored Barca’s lead on the night with this stunning volley.
Wonderful athleticism from Suarez… https://t.co/M7Y870G9hW
