Emery put out an young Arsenal side and youngster Martinelli impressed doubly by scoring and assisting on the night. Emery has drawn big praise of his side after the match.
”To have six points after the two matches, it’s really important. We can take confidence,” Emery told BT Sport.
”We were consistent over the 90 minutes and we can take a lot of positivity from tonight’s game. The players, when they did all they can like tonight, it is perfect. We did a lot of good, we can analyse to continue to improve. It’s a fantastic victory.
“We played with intensity but then we conceded some possession but we kept the clean sheet. We can improve in how to keep the ball and make more chances but for the players today, they are very tired after playing on Monday and they still played fantastic, it’s a fantastic victory.”
“We have to give the chances to the young players and they take them. They are close to playing for us at the highest levels. They showed tonight that they can perform and they can score. They are playing well, it’s good.”
