Mesut Ozil rescue Arsenal against Ludogorets, Brazilian Jonathan Cafu opened the scoring for Ludogorets from close range with his second goal in the Champions League, giving Arsenal keeper David Ospina no chance from a precise Wanderson free kick. Three minutes later, Cafu dribbled past Kieran Gibbs and delivered a tempting cross for Romanian striker Claudiu Keseru, who doubled Ludogorets's lead to send the home fans at the Vasil Levski stadium into dreamland.
Granit Xhaka, who returned to Arsenal's starting line-up after serving a domestic ban, reduced the deficit midway through the first half with Ozil turning provider. French striker Olivier Giroud made it 2-2 three minutes before the break after getting to the ball ahead of keeper Milan Borjan from Aaron Ramsey's cross and flicked home a header.
Ludogorets almost restored their lead in the second half but Ospina did well to parry Wanderson's shots on two occasions. However, Ozil, who scored a hat-trick in Arsenal's 6-0 win over Ludogorets two weeks ago, had the final word.
Ozil collected the ball in Ludogorets's half, lifted it over an advancing Borjan before slipping past two defenders and calmly slotting into an empty net. "I have already stated that Ludogorets are a very good side," Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said. "I was delighted that we managed to level before half time. Now we play Paris (St Germain) at home and we have a chance to finish top."
