Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has hailed “an amazing night” as they beat Atletico Madrid 1-0 to qualify for the Champions League final on Tuesday night.

Bukayo Saka scored the only goal of the game in the first half, as the Gunners progressed with a 2-1 aggregate.

It is also the first time Arteta will play in the Champions League, since they lost to Barcelona in 2006.

Arteta, speaking to Amazon Prime, hailed his players, staff and supporters.

He said: “It’s an amazing night to live this kind of moment with the players and everyone at the club, it’s an incredible feeling.

“It makes sense with all of the things we do and we go through and I see so many happy faces and proud of what we’re doing.

“It was unbelievable right from the beginning – the supporters waiting for us outside the stadium, the energy and passion that they put in so it was just great to win this.”
