Porto Manager In Furious Bust-up With Mikel Arteta For Insulting Family During UCL Loss! [Video]

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta was involved in a furious bust-up with Porto manager Sergio Conciecao after Arsenal’s Champions League round 16 victory over FC Porto.

The Premier League leaders harried Porto to their toes from the start of the game but struggled to find the back of the net.

Before the first half, Arsenal finally broke the deadlock through Leandro Trossard, who fired a powerful right-footed finish into the bottom-right corner to make it 1-0.

Trossard’s goal saw Arsenal tied with the opponents on a 1-1 aggregate score.

The game was dragged into extra time, and then penalties were Arsenal won 4-2 to qualify for the quarterfinals, thanks to David Raya’s two penalty saves.

Addressing the fallout in post-match press conference, Sergio Conciecao said Arteta mouthed insults and slurs at him and his family after the game.

Sources close to Arsenal have revealed Mikel Arteta has denied ever insulting Sergio Conciecao.

It has been seven years since Arsenal’s return to the Champions League and 10 years since they qualified for the last 8 of the competition.

The Gunners proved their mettle against the Portuguese champions with a dominant performance from start to finish and were destined to smash home victory and eliminate the resilient opponents from the competition.

They will learn their opponent this week when. The draws for the last eight of the competition will be conducted.
