    BBC Sport's chief football writer Phil McNulty wrote: "The Gunners looked to have been handed a favourable draw but a display that plumbed the depths of incompetence and naivety leaves them facing a last-16 exit once more.

    "Monaco were resilient at the back and capable of punishing Arsenal's shoddy defence."
