The fighting talk comes as standard. Arsenal are down after Tuesday night’s 1-0 home defeat against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League semi-final first leg but not out.

“This team … you can never give up on us,” Mikel Merino says. “Because I think we proved that we are always going to fight until the end. We have the technical quality and most important we have the motivation to go to the second leg and win this for our fans and for ourselves.”
