Manager says team ‘gutted’ after quarter-final exit in Germany‘Those margins are coming from something. We have to learn it’
Mikel Arteta said Arsenal’s players were “gutted” after losing to Bayern Munich and missing out on a first Champions League semi-final since 2009. Joshua Kimmich’s second-half goal was enough to secure a 3-2 aggregate win.
Arsenal were visibly disconsolate at the end and Arteta admitted they fell just short in a tightly-contested tie. “At the moment it is a gutted dressing room,” he said. “We are very disappointed. We have to go through it. We tried against a team with a lot of experience. Through the tie the margins have been very small.”
