(Reuters) - Arsenal "deserved to win" despite slumping to a stunning 1-0 defeat at BATE Borisov in Thursday's Europa League last 32 tie, according to manager Unai Emery.

Arsenal, who had scored 10 goals in two games against the Belarusian side in the same competition in 2017, conceded at the stroke of half time from a set piece and Emery's side now need to win by at least two goals at home to advance.
