Laca - We wanted to give back to the fans

Another Carabao Cup match for Alex Lacazette, another goal.

The French striker captained the side against AFC Wimbledon on Wednesday night and paid tribute to the fans after more than 50,000 attended the match at Emirates Stadium.

"Honestly I was surprised to see that many fans tonight for the game," Lacazette told Arsenal Media. "We are happy and we enjoy it when they are there. 

"We missed them a lot during the pandemic so now that they are here, we have to give back the confidence that they give us.

"Honestly we want to go as far as we can in this competition, we want to win, in this kind of game we have to make it easy. 

"I think we should do it earlier but at the end we have to say they (Wimbledon) played well but we are happy with our performance.

"All the players needed some minutes because obviously we don't have as many games this season so when we have a game like this we just want to perform well and enjoy it on the pitch together."
