Lewis Holtby has saluted an "astonishing" performance from his Schalke side after they retrieved a two-goal deficit against Arsenal on Tuesday night.

Roman Neustadter, Holtby's midfield colleague, felt the hosts may have deserved even more from the match. "It's a real shame that we weren't rewarded for our performance," he added. "We dictated the game, and had Arsenal with their backs to the wall at the end. We were unlucky with both of their goals. "But we are still in a very good position to get out of the group, and I'm convinced that we will reach the knockout stages."
