“I had never marked missing, what were the possibilities?”Arteta admitted on Tuesday at a press conference.
“There is a lot of training behind that. We had been doing a direct missing goal for three and a half years and we have made two in ten minute. Individual quality plays a very important role in this competition. We knew we could create problems to Madrid, but then you have to do it in the field. ”
“Tonight we have taken a step forward. Now we have to enjoy the victory, But this is only half and we have to do even better in Madrid to pass. ”
Now Real Madrid will have the almost impossible task of tracing the result at Santiago Bernabéu if he wants to be in the semifinals.
“It is part of its history. They have demonstrated it many times And that’s why we are very clear about the game we have done and why we have done it and we will talk about what we have to do and win again. ”
On the change in the club, of not qualifying for many years to Champions to be runner -up of the Premier League two years in a row and be one step away from the first semifinals in sixteen years, Arteta assured that history is created in matches like this.
“When you have not faced this opponent for so many years, so long without making such a path in Europe … The stories are created with matches like this. Fans will remember for many time. It’s a step, but we still have a lot. ”
