Error-strewn Arsenal recover in 6-5 win

The visiting defence looked like they were playing together for the first time as Legia established a three-goal lead by the 36th minute courtesy of goals by Alejandro Ariel Cabral, a Laurent Koscielny own goal and Artur Jedrzejczyk.

It was a win for Arsene Wenger's team in their final pre-season friendly, but one that provides as many questions as answers.

Fulham strolled to a 5-1 win over Werder Bremen in their friendly, with Zoltan Gera netting a hat-trick. Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson was in the crowd keeping an eye on Bremen and Germany star Mezut Ozil, the 21-year-old rumoured to be the top summer transfer target for the Old Trafford club.

The high point of Everton's trip to Germany to face Steve McClaren's Wolfsburg was undoubtedly confirmation that Mikel Artela has signed a five-year contract extension with the Goodison Park outfit.

West Ham beat Deportivo La Coruna on penalties, Pablo Barrera converting the winner for Avram Grant's men, who had finished the match goalless after 90 minutes.

Birmingham lost their unbeaten record in pre-season as Emilio Nsue's second-half effort proved enough for Real Mallorca at St Andrew's.

West Brom suffered a blow before the start of their clash with Osasuna as summer arrival Pablo Ibanez was forced to pull out through injury.

Aberdeen’s toughest test of their pre-season programme proved too much as the Scottish Premier League outfit lost 2-0 to Kaiserslautern in Germany.

Seven days before their opening SPL fixture with Celtic, Inverness had marginally more joy, Richie Foran returning from injury to grab the goal that earned a home draw with Royal Antwerp.
