The Gunners boss took a strong team to face the Belarusian champions, making just two changes to the team that beat Huddersfield in the Premier League at the weekend.But the north London side were embarrassed in a 1-0 defeat at the Borisov Arena.Its arguably the worst result since Emery took charge, and to make matters worse they will be without striker Alexandre Lacazette for the second leg of their last 32 tie after he was sent off late on for swinging a wild elbow at a BATE player.
