After seeing us thrash Atletico Madrid 4-0, Mikel Arteta pinpointed his players’ courage on the ball as a key reason for a remarkable result in the Champions League.
Gabriel, Gabriel Martinelli and a Viktor Gyokeres brace did the damage on a wild night in north London as we picked up a ninth point already in the league phase, but things looked very different when we went into the break goalless, and the visitors striking the crossbar not long after the second half began.
But after Big Gabi had nodded us in front, Little Gabi’s neat finish took the game away from Atleti, aided by a brilliant 40-yard run through the heart of Diego Simeone’s team by Myles Lewis-Skelly, making his first start in three weeks.
