Arsenal pip City 2-1, to face Chelsea in FA Cup final

Arsenal qualified for the FA Cup final by defeating Manchester City 2-1 on Sunday at the Wembley Stadium.

The Gunners came back from a goal down to win the game.

In the first half, Manchester City had a goal disallowed and both teams were denied penalty protests as it ended 0-0.

All the action happened in the second half.

Aaron Ramsey tried to beat Yaya Toure on the edge of City’s box, but the Ivorian robbed him of the ball and put a pass through to Sergio Aguero, who out-paced Nacho Monreal and dinked the ball over the onrushing Petr Cech.

Ten minutes later, Oxlade-Chamberlain swung a fantastic cross to Monreal who slotted in Arsenal’s equaliser.

Neither side failed to find a late breakthrough, hence, the game needed additional 30 minutes for a winner to emerge.

In the 11th minute of the first half of extra time, Mesut Ozil dinked a free-kick into the 18-yard box, which resulted in a goalmouth scramble.

The ball eventually fell to Alexis Sanchez, who bundled it past Claudio Bravo to put the Gunners’ ahead.

Arsenal will now face Chelsea on May 27 in the final.
