The second leg of the 2024/25 UEFA Champions League quarter-finals will stage another focus match tomorrow, and Arsenal will go to the Bernabeu Stadium to face La Liga giants Real Madrid again. Arteta said that he believes the team has the ability to face any situation in the game and encouraged the team to continue to prove its strength on the Champions League stage.

Thanks to Rice's two wonderful free kicks and Merino's goal, Arsenal defeated Ancelotti's Real Madrid 3-0 in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals and successfully took the lead in advancing to the semi-finals.

Arsenal manager Arteta said at a press conference, "If you want to create a story, you must first be excited about it. You must be fully prepared for it, and then firmly believe in what you want to achieve. Then it's all about sticking to it and moving forward step by step. Many clubs build their own history in this way, trying again and again, sometimes failing, sometimes succeeding."

"We experienced that last year and we hope to do better this time and turn that experience into motivation to reach the semi-finals, which is only the third time in our club's history."

Arteta pointed out, "There are three core aspects of the game, namely physical, technical and emotional control, and the emotional aspect is very critical. Our performance this season makes me very confident, whether in good times or bad times. We have prepared for all possible situations and firmly believe that we have the ability to deal with any situation. No matter what the trend of tomorrow's game is, we will devote ourselves to it and enjoy every minute."

When asked if he was worried about being overturned by Real Madrid, Arteta said, "I wouldn't use the word 'worry'. I think it's more of a respect and admiration for what they have achieved in this competition. As a club, the history they have written over the years, the values they have defended, it's incredible. For any coach, any manager and team, this is a huge motivation."

"It has been 497 days since we conceded three goals in a game, but that doesn't matter. The key is to prove ourselves again on this stage. This is the charm of sports. We know we can do it, and this should be a source of confidence for us. But in the end, everything will come back to the pitch, and that is the only thing that really matters."
