Mikel Arteta said Arsenal's dramatic last-gasp victory against Leicester City will help "shape the character" of the team as he prepares for the Champions League showdown against Paris Saint-Germain.
The Gunners scored twice in added time to win 4-2 on Sept 28 and are third in the English Premier League, one point behind leaders Liverpool.
Arsenal host French champions PSG in a Champions League league-phase match at the Emirates on Oct 1, seeking their first win in the competition this season after a goal-less draw against Atalanta last time out.
Arsenal manager Arteta was asked at his pre-match press conference about the importance of winning games from different positions – either by dominating games or with last-gasp victories.
"It shapes the character and the body of the team, that they have the certainty that they can win in any context and adapt to very different contexts during matches," he said.
