Arsene Wenger praised his Arsenal side for the way they performed in unfamiliar surroundings as they left Ostersunds with one foot in the last 16 of the Europa League.
Surrounded by snow drifts at the Jamtkraft Arena and playing on an unfamiliar 4G pitch, a strong Arsenal side overcame trying conditions to win 3-0.
Wenger got out of the group stages by largely utilising his fringe players and young prospects but, now sitting eight points off the top four, winning the Europa League arguably presents the Gunners with their best shot of returning to the Champions League.
