Arsenal has qualified for the semifinals of the Europa League with a 1-0 (3-0 cumulative) win in Napoli on Thursday.

Arsenal started Thursday's game with a 2-0 advantage after winning in London last week. The win was the second consecutive appearance of the Gunners in the last four places of the tournament and the fifth overall for manager Unai Emery, who won three consecutive titles in Seville.

Alexandre Lacazette scored the only goal of the match in the 36th minute on a superb free kick off the penalty box that surprised Napoli goaltender Alex Meret in the process.

The victory was lessened by the departure of Aaron Ramsey in the first half due to an injury, while Henrikh Mkhitaryan showed up for the Welsh.

Arsenal will face Valencia, while Chelsea will face Eintracht Frankfurt in the other match.
