Mikel Arteta admitted watching the humdinger between Manchester City and Real Madrid has made him even more determined to get Arsenal back into the Champions League.
Arteta's mentor Pep Guardiola last week saw his side edge out a seven-goal thriller in their semi-final first leg.
'The level and the quality that these games are played at is just incredible,' said Arteta. 'It's getting better every single year. You look at the game we all watched between City and Real Madrid, it was absolutely phenomenal. The week before it was the same.
