“I think it was a fantastic game, such an exciting game, a great atmosphere with two teams who wanted to play and win the game,” Pochettino said.“It’s always tough to play against Arsenal. It was tough because to concede after 15 minutes was tough for us. “But of course I am so happy with the character, the personality and the way that in the end we played.“It wasn’t a great performance, but it was very good to draw and then maybe deserve to win.“After two defeats it was important today to build again our positive ways. We have a very difficult game on Tuesday against Borussia Dortmund and arriving in a better condition than we arrived today is going to be key.”
