Mikel Arteta, demonstrating a defensive football style with the Arsenal team this year, was asked about the highest-scoring Champions League semifinal match ever between PSG and Bayern, which ended 5-4 in favor of the Parisians.

Despite his playing style, the Arsenal strategist praised another Champions League semifinal match.

The Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich match was probably the best I have ever seen. I have not seen anything like it.

However, when I look at the minutes played by the players of those teams, I am not surprised by their quality," said M. Arteta at the press conference.

In another Champions League semifinal match, Arsenal played a 1-1 draw with Atletico.
