Arteta’s Bold Challenge: Can Arsenal Rise from FA Cup Ashes to Prove Their True Grit?
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has called on his team to show a strong response after they were unceremoniously dumped out of the FA Cup by Championship side Southampton tonight.
Just two weeks after losing the EFL Cup final to Manchester City, the Gunners saw another trophy elude them as Shea Charles netted with five minutes to go to settle an absorbing cup tie on the south coast.
Ross Stewart had given Southampton a 35th-minute lead but Viktor Gyokeres came off the bench to equalise for the Premier League leaders in the second half. The game seemed to be heading towards extra-time only for Northern Ireland international Charles to fire past Kepa Arrizabalaga and send the home crowd wild.
