Arsenal manager Arteta marvels at the incredible atmosphere at home

In the 24th round of the 2024-25 Premier League, Arsenal defeated Manchester City 5-1. Coach Mikel Arteta was proud of the team's performance, and what amazed him even more was the incredible atmosphere at home.

Arsenal opened fire in the second half of the game, scored 4 goals and eventually won the game. In the post-match interview, Arteta said: "This is our biggest victory against the defending champions. The atmosphere at the Emirates Stadium is incredible, especially in the second half. This is a victory worth remembering."

"I'm very happy with the performance and the way we played. I'm proud of the players. I'm also proud of the atmosphere we created. It was amazing."

"To be able to experience these special moments with the fans, that strength, that connection between the team and the fans, it's a foundation we can continue to build on and strengthen."

When talking about the team's playing style of high pressure, Arteta said: "We played very aggressively and showed great courage. Of course, there are risks in doing so, because Manchester City players are very good and they can always find ways to break the pressure. But this risk paid off in the end."

“There were times in the game when we had to withstand pressure and be patient when defending deep. We withstood the pressure and got the luck we deserved at the crucial moment. Our second goal came at the right time and we quickly took control of the game.”

"After that goal, we didn't give the opponent any hope or initiative. We kept pressing and completely controlled the situation, which made me very happy."
