Ramsey: Galatasaray goal one of my best ever

Arsenal cruised to an easy victory at the Turk Telecom Arena on Tuesday, although the performance was ultimately meaningless as Borussia Dortmund made sure of top spot in Group D with a 1-1 draw with Anderlecht.

Ramsey stole the limelight in Istanbul in the 29th minute as he doubled his tally to make it 3-0 with a vicious half-volley into the top-right corner from 30 yards after Galatasaray had failed to fully clear a Joel Campbell corner.

Ramsey told Sky Sports: "The ball came to me on the edge of the box and I had a go and thankfully it went in. It's up there with my best strikes."

"We finished on a high in the group and now we're looking forward to seeing who we'll face in the next round," he added.

"We scored a few goals and took full advantage of the opportunities.

"We came here with a few players making their first appearance and it was nice to come here and nearly come away with what we needed to finish top."

"I felt a bit of a tight hamstring at half-time," he said. "So I came off as a precaution with the game against Newcastle at the weekend."
