Mikel Arteta reacts to Arsenal's defeat against Porto
The Gunners suffered a major upset in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League round-of-16 clash against FC Porto, as they lost 0-1. The Portuguese team put one leg into the next round of the competition thanks to a brilliant stoppage-time strike from Brazilian forward Galeno.
The result means that Arsenal will have to win the reverse fixture at the Emirates if they are to stand a chance of overturning the tie and booking their place in the quarter-finals.
Meanwhile, head coach Arteta has revealed that his team will learn from the shocking defeat. In his words via BBC Sports, he said:
"We will learn from it. Now it is clear, it is half-time. If you want to be in the quarter-finals you have to beat your opponent and that will be the purpose and the plan."
