Arsenal cruised past Villarreal 3-0 at the Emirates Stadium to make it through 4-1 overall and set up a mouth-watering tie between the two Barclays Premier League sides.Theo Walcott, Emmanuel Adebayor and Robin van Persie (penalty) were on the scoresheet as Arsene Wenger's youngsters defied their injury worries in defence to wrap up the tie.
The Spaniards then had Sebastian Eguren dismissed and the hosts were able to conserve energy for their FA Cup tie against Chelsea at the weekend.
So now old rivals Sir Alex Ferguson and Wenger must battle it out over two matches for the right to go to the Rome final on 27th May. Chelsea play Barcelona in the other semi-final tie.
