Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said his side had to take risks to secure a 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Sunday.
The Gunners struggled to break down their hosts for much of the encounter, with the match seemingly heading towards a goalless draw.
However, substitute Noni Madueke broke the deadlock late in the game, cutting inside before firing a shot that took a deflection and found the back of the net to hand Arsenal all three points.
“We had to earn it until the last second,” Arteta told reporters.

“They are a well coached team and hard to break down. We had to take risks, they are a dangerous team.
“We had to manage the emotional part really well. We stayed focused and the finishers made a huge impact.”
The result ensures that Arsenal remain three points behind Manchester City, who are yet to drop a single point this season.
