London's "Arsenal" unexpectedly stepped into the FA Cup final on Saturday by defeating "Manchester City" 2-0 in the semi-finals. Both goals for the "gunners" were scored by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, whose future at the club remains unclear. However, "Arsenal" coach Mikel Arteta hopes that such victories will convince the Gabonese to sign a new contract. "I hope that these victories will convince Aubameyang that we are on the right track. This week was special for us - we defeated two of the strongest European teams," Arteta recalled, referring to the victory over "Liverpool". "I don't care which players play, I trust them all. We made some adjustments to the lineup and all the players were ready. At certain moments, we just had to endure. We had to play organized and minimize the spaces left for the opponents," the Spaniard explained to BBC.
