Arsenal rallied in the second half to beat Spanish giant Barcelona 2-1 in a thrilling first-leg match in the last 16 of the Champions League and three Brazilians scored for visiting Shakhtar Donetsk in its 3-2 victory against Roma.
Russia captain Andrey Arshavin came off the bench and capped a flowing length-of-the-field move with the winner for Arsenal in the 83rd minute of a gripping game at Emirates Stadium.
Netherlands forward Robin van Persie's 78th-minute volley had cancelled out David Villa's first-half opener for Barcelona, which will still be held by many as the favourite ahead of the second leg on March 8.
"The game promised a lot and it fulfilled that expectation," Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said. "It was a special night. We kept resilient and strong. I am very proud of my team."
Shakhtar trio Jadson, Douglas Costa and Luiz Adriano scored in the space of 13 minutes at the end of the first half to cancel out Simone Perotta's opener for Roma in the Italian capital.
France forward Jeremy Menez's second-half goal gave Roma some hope but it was another disappointing Champions League night for Italy, with Serie A leader AC Milan losing 1-0 to Tottenham at the San Siro on Tuesday.
Arsene Wenger has finally managed to register his first victory against FC Barcelona with a splendid 2-1 come back from behind victory. David Villa gave Barca the lead in the first half but Arsenal came back spectacularly in the second half to take the game away from us. We have now everything left to do and to make matters worse we will be without the service of Pique for the return leg. Guardiola's plan to sit back and take on the pressure in the second half back fired heavily and we had to pay for that. Guardiola lined up with Alves, Pique, Abidal and Maxwell in defense. The midfield had Iniesta, Busquets and Xavi. Messi, Villa and Pedro formed the attacking trio. Arsenal started with Nasri from the start on the left.

Arsenal 2-1 Barcelona
Arsenal came from a goal down to beat Barcelona, the best team in the world — and to beat it with youth and spirit and skills, all of which are Barça’s own qualities. A compelling night in London, but as Arsenal’s players acknowledge, a job only half done, with the second leg in Catalonia to come. ARSENAL FANS HAVE A FEELING THAT THEY MAY KNOCK BARCELONA IN THE SECOND LEG!
