Arsenal have created Champions League history following their big 3-1 victory over Inter Milan
Arsenal resumed their Champions League campaign on Tuesday with a trip to the San Siro.
Before their clash against Inter, Mikel Arteta's side had won each of their six European fixtures this season, including huge wins over Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich.
And Arsenal made it seven wins from as many Champions League games after beating Inter 3-1.

Gabriel Jesus opened the scoring after poking home from inside the box in the 10th minute.
The hosts, however, replied when Petar Sucic smashed home from the edge of the box.
But the visitors regained the lead following Jesus' second goal of the night in the 31st minute.
From a set-piece, Leandro Trossard helped the ball onto Jesus, who headed home from close range.

Viktor Gyokeres added a third six minutes from time with a stunning finish to bring up his third Champions League goal this season.
Arsenal's win over Inter means it's the first time the club have won seven consecutive games in any UEFA competition in their history.
This season, the Gunners, who are the leading the way in the Premier League, have beaten Athletic Bilbao, Olympiacos, Atletico, Slavia Praha, Bayern, Club Brugge and, of course, Inter, scoring a staggering 20 goals and conceding just two goals in the process.

Arsenal sit at the top of the Champions League standings, with an impressive 21 points to their name.
They face Kazakhstan's Kairat next Wednesday in their final game of the league phase.
Given their impressive form in Europe, Arsenal, who have never won the Champions League, will be among the favourites to go all the way.
