Arsenal manager Unai Emery has applauded the efforts of players and fans after watching the Gunners overturn an aggregate deficit against Rennes to progress to the Europa League quarter finals. He was proud of the performance but refuses to call Arsenal favourites to lift the trophy.
Two goals from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and one from Ainsley Maitland-Niles at the Emirates Stadium put the Gunners through after losing the first leg 3-1 in France last week.
"We can be proud of our supporters and our players because it's been a very difficult week against Manchester United on Sunday and then against Rennes after our defeat away," Emery said at his post-match press conference, via Arsenal.
