Arsenal lead Greeks through Henry penalty

Arsenal 1 Panathinaikos 0

A Thierry Henry penalty earned Arsenal the lead at half-time in their Champions League clash with Panathinaikos at Highbury.

Patrick Vieira won the spot-kick after going down in the box following a tangle with Sotirios Kirgiakos.

Henry, who hit the post from the spot against Southampton on Saturday, made no mistake after 16 minutes and Arsenal took a deserved lead into the interval.
