Arsenal put behind their premier league loss to West Brom as they recorded their first European away win in a year as they beat 10-man Partizan Belgrade 3-1 in Serbia to maintain their unbeaten start in Champions League Group H.

After surviving a power failure which forced the teams 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 in the 15th minute through Andrey Arshavin.

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

Partizan then had Marko Jovanovic sent off for hauling down Marouane Chamakh on 55 minutes, but Arshavin missed his spot kick. However, Moroccan striker Chamakh and Sebastien Squillaci secured victory – with stand-in keeper Lukasz Fabianski saving a late spot-kick from cleo.
