Porto boss Conceicao claims Arteta insulted his family

Porto manager Sergio Conceicao claimed Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta insulted his family during the London club's penalty shootout win over the Portuguese side in their dramatic Champions League last-16 tie.

Arsenal won 4-2 in the shootout following a 1-1 draw on aggregate, booking their place in the quarter-finals for the first time since 2010.

"During the game, (Arteta) turned to the bench and in Spanish - it must be a Spanish coach thing because it was the same thing with (Pep) Guardiola - he insulted my family," said Conceicao.

"In the end I told him to pay attention because who he insulted is no longer with us, and to worry about coaching his team, because due to individual quality he has an obligation to do more and better."

When asked about the incident in his post-match press conference Arteta said: "No comment".
