Late Giroud double books semi-final spot

Alex Chamberlain
Going in to the quarter final of the FA cup clash with a defeat at the Britannia last weekend, Arsene Wenger's men needed to show a real sense of 'maturity' against a tough Martinez's Everton.
With Mesut Ozil's 'come back' goal in the 7' minute, all seemed set for a spectacular encounter. Lukaku's effort got Everton on level pegging before the close of the first half.
After a slow start to the second half, Alex Chamberlain was brought down in the penalty box  resulting in a penalty which Mikel Arterta easily converted. 2-1 it was in favor of Arsenal until Giroud was introduced from the bench to finish off two swift Arsenal counter attack moves, taking the game beyond Everton.
4-1 it was in favor of Arsenal at the end of the game. Arsenal are headed to Wembley.
