// A bit of a hack but it works// The article snippet is wrapped onto a second line, even when #article-sub is emptyif( $("div#article-sub").children().length == 0 ) {$("div#article-sub").remove();} Arsenal striker Robin van Persie accepted that both goals against Celtic owed plenty to good fortune.[LNB] The Gunners came away from the first leg of their UEFA Champions League qualifier at Celtic Park on Tuesday with a 2-0 lead, but it took a deflection from William Gallas and a Gary Caldwell own goal to seal the result.[LNB]And while Van Persie believes Arsenal helped to create their own luck, he admits Celtic were hard done by.[LNB]"If you look at the first goal, it was a good free-kick and William's run made that goal, but it was very lucky," he told Sky Sports.[LNB]"The second goal was a good attack and in the end their centre-back needed to make the touch. Again it was lucky.[LNB]"They played really well but you know if you score just before half-time it is a setback for them. We kept going and it was a good result." [LNB]
