ARSENAL WINS FA CUP IN A DRAMATIC FINAL

ENGLISH FA CUP: ARSENAL 3 - HULL CITY 2 (AET)

Arsenal fought back from 2-0 down to win a dramatic FA Cup final 3-2 over Hull City with a goal from Aaron Ramsey in extra-time to end their nine-year wait for a trophy.

Hull had ealier stunned the Gunners at a Wembley as they went 2-0 up inside eight minutes through James Chester and captain Curtis Davies, who both capitalised on some poor defending from balls into the penalty area.

Arsenal, though, rallied and reduced the deficit through a superb 30-yard free-kick from Santi Cazorla.

After several Arsenal penalty claims, notably a pull by Tom Huddlestone on Olivier Giroud, were turned down by referee Lee Probert, the equaliser evetually came on 71 minutes when Laurent Koscielny knocked the ball into the net from a corner before being clattered by Allan McGregor.

However, it was left to Ramsey, who left Wembley in tears as a schoolboy following defeat with Cardiff in the 2008 final against Portsmouth to complete a remarkable turnaround when he crashed in a loose ball from the edge of the penalty box on 109 minutes which handed Arsene Wenger his first taste of success since 2005.
