The second half definitely started better than the first and Van persie had a good chance to put the tie to bed already 2 minutes in but slotted wide. Another chance was put wide from Denilson soon after when his shot outside the bx flashed just wide of artur Boruc's far side.
The pressure piled on Celtic and they did become ragged allowing the game to open up in Arsenal favour. On the 53rd minute we had another good chance with Fabregas outside the box who only managed to flash his shot wide of the post, but arsenal started to control more of the play and started to look more and more dangerous with every attack. Nicklas Bendtner also had a glancing shot but he couldn't put it on target.
The tired legs started to show as the half waned on and as a result the game became more and more stretched which allowed us to see alot more of the ball than we did in the first half. Despite numerous buildups the game was starting to become a little sow and certain players looked tired. Wenger did freshen things up on the 69th minute with Diaby coming on for the ineffective Arshavin. The effect was immediate as Diaby opened up his legs towards the Celtic box and found Clichy who's low driven cross was inadvertently put in his own net by Caldwell. The script seemed to be going the right way and surely the two away goals was enough to see Arsenal through.
Suprisingly we had scored two goals that were not typical of us which is a good thing. Last season we tried to score the perfect goal but bring on the dirty ones, I hope we don't use up all the dirty goal quota too soon though.
