Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech admits there was a lot of frustration in the away dressing room after their Europa League defeat at BATE Borisov.

The Gunners go back to London with the aggregate score at 1-0 in favour of BATE.

Cech said, "We didn't take our chances. I think that in the first half we played well and created enough chances to go ahead in the game, but unfortunately we didn't take our chances and we conceded in the last minute of the half, which obviously gives them a lot of confidence and belief.

"In the second half they were waiting for the counter-attack and we were trying to find our way to score the goal and we scored one, but it was ruled as offside. We got the result we didn't want. We want to score goals and we want to win and we want to put ourselves in a good position for the second leg, but we've made it more difficult for ourselves."

He added: "Today was one of those games where if you play another couple of hours we wouldn't have scored, but there are games like that in football. You try, you play and sometimes you go home with the result you don't want, but you have to pick yourself up and make sure that you're ready for the second leg. That's the advantage of a two-leg play-off; if one game is bad you can always make up for it."
