Arsenal defender David Luiz says that his team were ‘humble and mature’ as they won their Europa League Round of 32 first leg away at Olympiacos.

The Gunners scored a vital away goal thanks to Alex Lacazette’s 81 st minute strike, but they were defensively solid throughout the game too.

“It was a good result for us. It's so difficult to play here against an amazing team with an amazing coach, amazing atmosphere.

“It was difficult but I think we played a mature game where we tried not to concede and we knew when we had to defend,” he told Arsenal’s official website.

“They are a good team. They did well in the Champions League against amazing teams and they showed tonight that they have great ideas in football.

“But we played a humble game, a mature game, and understood that we needed to defend as a team. It's a good result but it's not finished yet.”
