Tierney recated to Neves recent claim about Arsenal

defender

has responded to recent comments by

midfielder Ruben Neves about the Arsenal reaction to their previous victory.

Following Arsenal's 1-0 victory at the Molineux Stadium on 10 February, the players celebrated the win and the Portuguese midfielder claimed that they were celebrating as if they had won the league. The talk became a boost for the Gunners against Wolverhampton Wanderers again on Thursday, when they won 2-1 with goals from Alexandre Lacazette and Jose Sa's own goal. Scottish defender now responded to Neves after their recent victory.

He told

:

“Obviously everyone knows the comments that were made. So we knew they were going to come out and try to beat us, and get their revenge. But we stood up to that challenge.

“They had a good start and got the goal they needed and wanted. But after that we controlled most of the game.

“It's a massive win, massive three points. Coming from behind isn’t easy in this league, especially against a team like Wolves. So we showed character tonight, we showed mentality, and I think we got what we deserved in the end.

“We never gave up for one second. As I say, a few of us believed we were going to get that goal, most of us believed. I think when you've got the belief anything can happen. That showed tonight.”
