Talisman Alexis Sanchez helped Arsenal come from behind to beat Cologne 3-1 in a Europa League game delayed due to crowd congestion.
Alexis Sanchez put his off-field problems aside to help Arsenal kick off their Europa League Group H campaign with a 3-1 over Cologne following a one-hour delay due to crowd congestion.
Sanchez has cut a frustrated figure this season having seen a move to Manchester City fall through, but his moment of quality proved decisive on a bizarre Thursday night at the Emirates Stadium.
