Arsenal dominate but draw a blank against home town champions Ajax

The Gunners, who drew 0-0 with River Plate in Friday’s match, were by far the more impressive side but could find no way past the outstanding Ajax goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg.

Stekelenburg conjured up a host of magnificent saves in the second-half to keep the game goalless. Yesterday’s other match saw Argentinian giants River Plate beat Panathinaikos 1-0, meaning Ajax, who beat the Greek club 3-2 on Friday, finished top of the standings for the fourth year in a row.
