Arsenal again win the English FA Cup defeating Chelsea 2-1

Arsenal has once again won the English FA cup by defeating Chelsea 2-1, which extended their win of the cup to a record 14th times.

The game was played on Saturday evening at the prestigious Wembley stadium. It was Skipper Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who scored twice to help Arsenal to land such an important crown for the season.

Christian Pulisic had given Chelsea the dream start, but the Blues’ unraveled after Aubameyang was brought down by Cesar Azpilicueta inside the area and converted the resulting penalty, while a brilliant finish from Aubameyang 23 minutes from time earned Mikel Arteta silverware in his first season as Arsenal boss before Chelsea were controversially reduced to 10 men when Mateo Kovacic was shown what many people described as an extremely soft second yellow card.

It has really been a turbulent managerial season like no other for Mikel Arteta, who was appointed in a crisis at Christmas and now finishes with an FA Cup triumph at the start of August with a trophy out the blue.

This was a FA Cup final full of all the dramatic stuff: great goals, big injuries, a red card and the bad feeling that ordinarily has existed between these two clubs since they first began competing on the same level in the modern era.

 For Frank Lampard, it just about all went wrong in the crucial moments of the game but for his opposite number Arteta, the plan seemed to work perfectly and delivered a trophy ahead of schedule.
