With our season on the line, we delivered a sensational away win in Prague to reach the semi-finals of the Europa League.
Mikel Arteta has always believed in his players to perform when the pressure is greatest, and he says Thursday night's result underlines the character in his squad.
"The fact that you reach a semi-final is always a big boost, this club has always to be fighting for every competition we are involved in," our manager said.
"Last night's performance was a big indicator that under pressure the team can perform, that they have this spirit and desire to do well and show a real character.
