Arsenal took a huge step towards the Europa League final as a double from Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's late strike earned a 3-1 semi-final, first leg win over Valencia on Thursday.
The Spanish side's bright start was rewarded with Mouctar Diakhaby's away goal, but Lacazette quickly turned the game around with two goals in eight minutes before Aubameyang's late intervention gave the Gunners a two-goal advantage to defend at the Mestalla on May 9.
