Arsenal beat Marseille in the Champions League through a late Aaron Ramsey goal.

Arsenal have beaten Marseille in their Champions League group stage match after a late Aaron Ramsey goal in France.

Both sides had penalty shouts turned down in the first half, with Gunners defender Carl Jenkinson clearly handling a cross, while Souleymane Diawara similarly handled Mike Arteta's searching ball.

Arsenal enjoyed most of the possession in the second half and they made the all-important breakthrough in the 92nd minute when Aaron Ramsey calmly slotted home after the ball had fallen into his path.

The result moves Arsene Wenger's side above their French opponents to the top of Group F.
