Mikel Arteta could put his feet up as Arsenal capitalised on their first-leg lead as a rotated side drew 2-2 against PSV Eindhoven to win 9-3 on aggregate. Arsenal had already done the qualification job after demolishing PSV 7-1 in Eindhoven last week.

Mikel Arteta insists Arsenal are ‘very capable’ of beating Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals, although he recognises it will be ‘very difficult’ for them to do so. The Gunners strolled into the last eight with a 9-3 aggregate victory over PSV over two legs of the last 16.

Mikel Arteta called on Arsenal to take the "next step" after booking their place in the Champions League last eight in successive seasons for the first time in 15 years. Oleksandr Zinchenko and Declan Rice were on the scoresheet as the Gunners drew 2-2 with PSV Eindhoven at the Emirates Stadium to win 9-3 on aggregate after dealing the Eredivisie side a 7-1 drubbing in the reverse fixture.
