Emmanuel Adebayor's stunning overhead kick earned Arsenal a crucial draw in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final against Villarreal.
Adebayor chested down a Cesc Fabregas pass and acrobatically volleyed home to get the Gunners a crucial away goal.
Villarreal had dominated the first half and went in front when Marcos Senna fired in a screamer from 30 yards.
But Arsenal improved and Adebayor headed wide before the Togo striker conjured up his piece of magic.
<!-- E SF --> It really was a game of two halves in Spain and after being outplayed before the break, Arsenal dominated to such an extent after it that they will consider themselves unlucky not to be taking a lead back to the Emirates next Wednesday.
After the Gunners' impressive recent form and the return to fitness of several of his key players, the first half must have been a frustrating for boss Arsene Wenger.
