The Frenchman told BBC Sport after the game: "I am very pleased, it was a big game today. Overall it was a great performance not only technically but mentally. We became stronger and in the end deserved to win the game.
"The team performance was there. When the players give their best and are completely focused you always stand up for them.
"We were close to scoring and on the break they are very good. We lost the ball and conceded the goal but we showed the right response."
Arsenal will return to Wembley Stadium on May 27 to face London rivals Chelsea in the final.
