Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has praised the spirit of his players after they completed a fighting comeback to keep their Premiership hopes alive on Tuesday night.
The Gunners were a goal down with 20 minutes remaining but rallied to score twice in six minutes to eventually run out 2-1 winners over Everton at Emirates Stadium.
A loss would have almost spelled goodbye to their season as it would have sent them eight points behind league leaders Manchester United but thankfully for Wenger, his charges fought back to record a stirring and much-needed victory.
"Tonight was a victory of a team with fantastic spirit and a never say die attitude rather than our usual game, but that is needed in this championship," he said.
"I am very happy because the spirit is maybe the aspect of the team that's been questioned the most, and that's where we have been the most convincing recently, in smaller (cup) games against Leeds, Ipswich and Huddersfield.
"We played our 10th game of the month tonight and have shown, where our football has dropped a bit, a fantastic attitude."
