Arsenal-Club

Gary O’Neil’s men threatened a major shock, his relegation-threatened side leading 2-0 against the Premier League leaders thanks to goals from Philip Billing and Marcos Senesi. But the Gunners roared back, equalising with Thomas Partey and Ben White on target, before Reiss Nelson smashed in a stunning winner in the final seconds of stoppage time. Reflecting on the 3-2 victory, which puts Arsenal back five points clear of Manchester City, boss Arteta said: “It was an extraordinary day, a beautiful experience at the end. Very dramatic, but worth living it because it was a great end to it. “Everybody is overwhelmed a little bit. “It was madness from the first second of the game. “Then you have to start to climb a mountain against 10 players behind the ball. We tried in every single way. “We didn’t score the goal and suddenly you are 2-0 down with a set play again.” He added: “After that, don’t lose the shape, don’t lose the discipline and start to do all the simple things right and try to score the first one. “We did that and we showed our maturity and our resilience to do that. “Once we’d done that, the atmosphere and the place changed the energy.”
