Mikel Arteta proud of Arsenal’s ‘hunger’ after win over Inter Milan

Mikel Arteta hailed the “hunger, desire and ambition” of his Arsenal players after they secured their place in the Champions League last 16 with a statement 3-1 victory against Inter Milan at San Siro.

Gabriel Jesus, making his first European start in 405 days, sent Arsenal on the way to their seventh straight victory in this season’s competition when he scored in the 10th minute.

Petar Sucic fired back for the home side eight minutes later, only for Jesus to restore the Gunners’ advantage later in the first half. Substitute Viktor Gyokeres added a third on a brilliant evening for Arteta’s men in Italy.
