Barcelona extended their unbeaten run to a record 33 games following their victory over Arsenal yesterday.

Ozil played the full 90 minutes during the Gunners’ defeat to last seasons champions.

The 27-year-old went into the game with the best assist record in England (17) but was unable to setup a goal against Barcelona although he did create two goal scoring chances.

Arsenal will now have to beat Barcelona at the Camp Nou by two goals or more to stand any chance of making it to the next round.

Barcelona host Sevilla at the Camp Nou in the Spanish league this weekend.
