Mikel Arteta reveals what PSG bench said about Arsenal after Champions League semi-final loss
Mikel Arteta claimed that Paris Saint-Germain staff admitted his Arsenal side were “much better than them” during their heartbreaking Champions League semi-final loss.
The Gunners trailed by one goal on aggregate heading into Wednesday night’s decisive second leg at the Parc des Princes and produced a valiant performance, eventually falling to a 2-1 defeat to exit the competition at the penultimate hurdle.
Speaking to TNT Sports after full-time, an upset Arteta said his side were in tears at the result, but suggested PSG’s staff felt they had gotten away with one after Gianluigi Donnarumma made a series of outstanding fingertip saves to preserve their lead.
