Unai Emery said Arsenal was "one of six" teams that could win the Europa League but reiterated how difficult their task would be.

Arsenal have reached the last 16 games of the competition thanks to a 3-1 victory over BATE, but were relegated to the first leg after a loss to the shock in Belarus last week.

They blew their visitors to the Emirates on Thursday to join the last 16 games of a competition that Emery had previously won three years in a row with the former Sevilla club.

After their emphatic victory, he said: "We can win, maybe if we can say that six teams can win, one of them is Arsenal, but it is very difficult. Many teams want the same thing.

"We really need to take advantage of this competition and create a great atmosphere with our fans, which can give us more opportunities, with our quality of team.

"We need to feel stronger in this competition and create that atmosphere around us."

Arsenal's return performance was a clear improvement over Borisov's disappointing performance seven days ago, as BATE won a European playoff match for the first time in its history.

"The first result was not good for us, so we needed a big effort tonight," added Emery. "We had to be careful because we had to score the same result as tonight because if they scored one, they would have the opportunity to pbad.

"We had a good concentration for 90 minutes to make sure we did not give them a lot of opportunities."
