Eze Thunderbolt Guides Arsenal Past Mansfield Into Fa Cup Quarter-Finals
Eberechi Eze's second-half goal secured Arsenal's 2-1 win over Mansfield Town, advancing them to the FA Cup quarter-finals and sustaining their quadruple ambitions.
- On March 7, Eberechi Eze's thunderbolt sent Arsenal into the FA Cup quarter-finals with a 2-1 win that kept their quadruple hopes alive.
- Mikel Arteta rotated heavily, making nine changes and starting two 16-year-olds, while Mansfield's Will Evans levelled five minutes after coming on, capitalising on shaky defending.
- Arteta introduced Eberechi Eze just after the hour, and Eze made space on the edge of the box to fire a fierce shot into the top-right corner in the 66th minute.
- Mansfield's cup dream ended despite it being only their fifth time in the fifth round and first since 1975, with delirious home fans making the oldest professional ground's main stand shake.
- The game underlined both cup pedigree and youth development as Eberechi Eze, last season's Crystal Palace final hero, again decided a cup tie and Arsenal started two 16-year-olds, Max Dowman and Marli Salmon.
