"It's a dream night,"
"I always dreamed of being a footballer. I watched when I was a kid. I watched a lot of Serie A, so to be here in this stadium and score here is tears in my eyes because I always dreamed of being here."
"There is always a reason that things happen, whether it's good things or difficult things. I learned that during my 11 months out of the field."
"It is always difficult to play against Inter Milan. We came here last season and lost. Tonight we played better than them, we controlled them but they are a top team and they attack. We scored at the end and got the three points. We have to keep going because we have another one at the weekend."
Gabriel Jesus scored twice as Arsenal beat Inter Milan 3-1 to secure a place in the Champions League last 16 and maintain a perfect group record. The 28-year-old made only his third start since returning from an 11-month anterior cruciate ligament injury and described the occasion as an emotional dream. Jesus has endured multiple setbacks across four seasons at the club and said those difficulties taught him resilience. He previously showed quality with a goal in a 4-1 win over Aston Villa. Viktor Gyokeres also contributed with a fine curling effort and added Arsenal's late third.
