(Reuters) - Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta praised record signing Nicolas Pepe after the Ivory Coast forward's goal helped send the Gunners through to the last 32 of the Europa League on Thursday.

Pepe was in disgrace last weekend after headbutting Leeds United's Ezgjan Alioski in an off-the-ball incident during his side's 0-0 Premier League draw at Elland Road -- Arteta calling his lack of discipline unacceptable.
