Arsenal came from behind to beat Cologne in their delayed Europa League opener against a backdrop of crowd trouble at the Emirates Stadium.

Kick-off was delayed by an hour as ticketless away supporters attempted to enter the ground in a game which the Gunners went on to win 3-1.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits the delayed start led to a sluggish first-half display.
