The London "Arsenal" club's head coach Mikel Arteta before the match against Lisbon "Sporting" urged to enjoy the opportunity:

"I don't want to look for excuses, because we have played so many matches every three days, and we will have to continue doing that."

"That is the context and the scenario, so we have to accept it and especially enjoy this opportunity."

"This is one of the things I haven't seen from the team - such pleasure at certain moments and the fight we need to demonstrate."

We have to change the course of the game when it gets tough."

"From now until June, we will face different circumstances, and if we want to achieve that, we have to be able to adapt."

The London "Arsenal" club lost to "Manchester City" in the "Carabao" Cup final.

Meanwhile, they were defeated by the "Southampton" team in the FA Cup quarterfinals.
