Perisic’s late wonder strike denies Gunners

ASSISTANT manager Pat Rice praised the battling qualities shown by Arsenal last night against Borussia Dortmund and believes the team have turned the corner.

The Gunners were denied victory in their Champions League Group F encounter at Signal Iduna Park as an exquisite volley from substitute Ivan Perisic secured a last-gasp 1-1 draw.

It looked as if Robin van Persie had snatched Arsenal an unlikely victory in Germany after withstanding a barrage of attacks before the home side struck a late blow.
