LONDON, April 15 (Reuters) - Arsenal edged past ⁠Sporting to reach the Champions League semi-finals for the second successive season with a 0-0 home draw earning them a ⁠1-0 aggregate victory on Wednesday.

It was far from convincing though for Mikel Arteta's side as they held on to ‌the lead given to them by Kai Havertz's stoppage-time goal in Lisbon last week.
