Thanks to a sublime bit of skill from Alexs Sanchez, Arsenal grabbed an early lead in its UEFA Champions League group stage match against Ludogorets on Wednesday at the Emirates.

Sanchez received the ball along the left flank, and after charging toward the goa,l he slowed down and allowed the Ludogorets goalkeeper to wander just far enough from his net for the Chilean to try an audacious chipped effort.

The 12th-minute goal gave the Gunners a 1-0 lead.
