The Chilean ace was involved in all of the Gunners' three goals against the Croatian side, leaving their next round hopes alive to face Olympiakos on December 9th.

Arsenal's Champions League campaign was given one last chance to continue, and the Gunners have Alexis Sanchez to thank for it. The Chilean striker scored a brace for Arsene Wenger's crew and also assisted Mesut Özil for the first goal of the game, giving the London-based team the chance to fight for their spot in the Round of 16 against Olympiakos in two weeks.

Özil headed in the game's first goal after a cross by the South American wingman, and four minutes later, Nacho Monreal assisted the Chilean for the game's second goal. Arsenal needed one more to have a better chance of making it to the knockout stage, and Alexis delivered for them with his second goal after 69 minutes.

In order to make it to the next round, Arsenal will have to travel to Greece and win their game against the Greek champions. Any other outcome of that game would strip them from the chance to fight for Europe's top club competition.
