London's Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger breathed a sigh of relief - even though the team led by the Frenchman fell behind 0-4 in the English Cup match against Reading, but after extra time they managed to snatch a victory with a score of 7-5.
A few days earlier, the football specialist had stated that cup matches are not very important, but now he claimed that a shameful defeat would have dealt a blow to the whole team.
"This tournament is not very important, but we managed to avoid a disaster and with an average performance we surpassed the opponents.
I would like to praise the fans as well, who actively supported the team throughout the match and I am glad that we rewarded them with a victory," - said A. Wenger after the match.
