Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta commented on the draw in the first match of the 1/8 final of the European League against Sporting Lisbon (2:2).

“If you miss two goals not far away, how far it was at once far from home in Europe, it’s even more convenient to achieve that positive result, for which the world was insured. I think that the children had different phases, especially the one who spent too many balls too much, too many simple balls in his half, and we gave them hope and gave them the opportunity to beat the moments, in which the stench is good. At the front line, we have a very positive moment, to that we showed great stamina, to turn into the group, but we need to protect ourselves better from our penalty box, and we are to blame.

We did not experience the League of Europe, and we happened to get stuck with a lot of problems, like we were small in the rest of the days, if we spent a lot of gravity. We have spent a lot of attackers, but in which tournament, if you want to pass, you happen to go through important moments. We knew that we are alive, I will still go ahead to Emirates, and, I support, I will be better and deservedly win.
