CSKA Moscow held Arsenal to a goalless draw at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday to snatch Group G summit.

The Russians raised their point tally to eight, one ahead of Arsenal and Porto, who crushed basement side Hamburg 3-1 in Germany.

Arsenal stars Thierry Henry, Cesc Fabregas and Tomas Rosicky squandered several chances through out the game.

CSKA could have snatched the victory through Vagner Love in the second-half but Jens Lehmann saved the day for the Londoners.

In Germany, Lucho Gonzalez, Lisandro Lopez and Bruno Moraes scored for the visitors to stay in the hunt.

Rafael van der Vaart scored a consolation goal for Hamburg who are yet to open their account in the tournament.
