Arsenal are through to the finals of the 2017 FA Cup. The gunners as they are fondly called by their fans defeated Manchester City by 2-1 after extra time. Alexis Sanchez’s scored winner in the first half of extra time after both teams played out 1-1 at full time.
Arsenal showed great resilience to come from behind after Sergio Aguero raced clear of Nacho Monreal to put City ahead in the 62nd minute.
The Spanish full-back made amends with the equaliser 11 minutes later as he drilled in Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s cross at the far post.
The win is a big let off for Arsene Wenger, the French Arsenal Manager who has come under intense pressure after a poor run of results. Arsenal will now meet Chelsea in the finals on the 27 May at the Wembley stadium with the hope of a record seventh FA Cup triumph.
