    Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang applauds the home fans, he scored twice and probably should have had his first Arsenal hat-trick.

    Rennes did have time for one more chance, but Ismaila Sarr snatches at his shot from the edge of the box and it's saved by Petr Cech, might have been going wide anyway.

    We're beyond the five. Is there any more time?

    Arsenal are really eating up time here. Think I saw some bottles get thrown in the background, not sure if they reached the pitch. Hamari Traore was booked for reacting to Alex Iwobi.

    Arsenal do get a free now and the fans cheer. Alex Iwobi is having beef with Hamari Traore and might have kicked him.

    Two minutes left. Alex Iwobi tries to buy a free-kick and fails. Rennes get the ball.

    Cheers from the Emirates fans as Rennes misplace a pass out for a throw-in. They'd had a good spell of possession.

    Arsenal are living life dangerously here. More Hatem Ben Arfa skill and he finds M'Baye Niang, who spins and plays a first-time pass to Adrien Hunou - but the flag goes up. Hunou misses anyway but that would have been a sitter had it counted.

    Former Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic has pulled a goal back for Zenit St Petersburg at Villareal but it's a case of too little too late.

    The Spanish side were 2-0 up on the night and go through 5-2 on aggregate.

    Petr Cech gets a bit of treatment and he's fine to continue.

    Almost a fright here for Arsenal but the offside flag goes up as Hatem Ben Arfa finds Adrien Hunou. Petr Cech saved the shot anyway and appeared to get a whack in the process.

    Aaron Ramsey comes off to a good ovation. Suspect this won't be his last Arsenal European appearance unless something dramatic happens.

    Arsenal are looking in control at the moment. But one Rennes goal sends this to extra time.

    Right, I'm going to have to watch all the films ever before my next shift in case a prop comes up in the next game I cover.

    "I can't believe you didn't know that was a Forrest Gump hat" in his celebration.

    Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang must be allergeric to hat-tricks. Aaron Ramsey rolls the ball across to him six yards out and he completely snatches at the ball, dragging it wide.
