FA Cup: Manchester United defeated Arsenal 5-3 on Penalties after the two sides could not be separated, with the score being 1-1, following the end of extra-time at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
Arsenal were left to rue many missed chances with the Red Devils having been shown a red card early in the second-half. The Gunners had a number of chances to knock out the defending champions but were eliminated on penalty shootouts by a resilient Manchester United side.
The game began slowly, with Arsenal enjoying most of the possession but failing to test United’s goalkeeper, Altay Bayindir. A disjointed first half included few clear chances, and a Gabriel Martinelli goal was ruled out for offside. Arsenal’s injury troubles increased as Gabriel Jesus was stretchered off late in the first half after a collision with Bruno Fernandes, forcing Raheem Sterling to replace him.
