Wenger salutes ‘faultless’ Fabianski

ARSENE WENGER hailed “faultless” stand-in goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski after the often-criticised Pole helped Arsenal record their first European away win in a year as they beat 10-man Partizan Belgrade 3-1 in Serbia last night to maintain a 100% start in Champions League Group H.

After surviving a power failure which forced the team to change in the dark and an intense atmosphere during the opening exchanges, the Gunners, who had six changes from the side beaten by West Brom at home on Saturday, went ahead on 15 minutes through Andrey Arshavin.

However, after wasting several more chances, the visitors were made to pay when Brazil-born striker Cleo levelled from the penalty spot after a handball by Denilson.
