Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta hailed the performance of Declan Rice after victory over Manchester United.

Rice fired Arsenal into a 2-1 lead in injury-time before the Gunners eventually won 3-1.

Arteta said: "The emotion at the end is why we are all in this industry, to work hard and earn the chance to live those moments. Extremely proud of the team.

"Both VAR decisions can be viewed in different ways but I think the performance of the team overall deserves the win.

"I love the mentality and determination the team shows. We made a hard life for ourselves by giving the first goal away, but overall I have pride in the team for what they want to do all the time.

"The equaliser was a great goal and it is the reaction you want.

"Big matches for big players and Rice was tremendous. He dominated in the middle of the park, he understands what was needed and gave the team motivation and then produced the moment of magic to win the game."
