00:00Drupal, it might sound fanciful but the FA Cup always offers the opportunity to dream and the
00:06latest hurdle on that improbable but possible quickly into the game if they get into a rhythm
00:10start to control the game they should win it easily Arsenal academy graduate Matt Smith on
00:17the bench Callum Wright no stranger to taking a big scout he was part of the Plymouth side that
00:22took out Liverpool at this stage last season it's up to Wigan to stop the game
00:33well Wigan caused an upset in round three when they beat Championship Preston
00:40Saka he's going to be allowed to roam I think today
00:43Madawake there's a slight challenge coming in from Will Ainsen but he didn't quite reach it
00:48Madawake suggesting
00:52now Ezzer Mascaras to his left Ezzer's going for goal and Saka stuck out of foot but it's already
00:58taken a deflection it's out for the first corner of the game now we're going to basically collapse
01:02it into their box so short corner which doesn't usually happen with Arsenal
01:06Miles Lewis, Skelly with a strike not too far away
01:12yeah whilst it's a shame that they get to see him in midfield because I think they
01:16working it out to Madawake, Martinelli's coming in from the far side Madawake
01:21tried to feed Ben White but was just a little bit heavy with his pass
01:25yeah he's asking him in 10 position with a little bit more space maybe he'll get an opportunity to
01:30express himself a little bit more that's a lovely ball from Ezzer to Madawake
01:37super finish he's really in form right now Madawake with his eighth goal of the season
01:46and it's a super ball from Eberici Ezzer who was the star of the FA Cup last season
01:52he's picked out a pinch of a pass this afternoon and it could be
01:56he did well just to stop that counter quick release from Ezzer once again the idea was superb but
02:05it was just unfortunate that Jesus had gone a little early yeah I mean to commit themselves
02:09and open up against this Arsenal team that's for sure Martinelli played in by Ezzer it's Martinelli
02:17it's 2-0 it's two assists for Eberici Ezzer and it's another FA Cup goal for Gabriel Martinelli
02:26well he may well not have had the best Thursday night at Brentford ever Ezzer
02:30but he's had an absolutely caulking start for this FA Cup tight he means business and so
02:41Arida Balaga shut down by Joe Taylor
02:47Madawake might just keep that in you know he does and Saka's made a good forward run
02:51it's a bit of a heavy pass but he's kept it in as well and then it goes to his
02:55own net of Jack Hunt
02:56and it's 3-0 to Arsenal
03:00well they lacked a little bit of firepower and creativity at Brentford but there are no such
03:05problems this afternoon they're causing Wigan all sorts of grief and Jack Hunt completely caught
03:11out as put for his own net and it's 3-0 for the Arsenal it's with Saka
03:17the keeper a bit of space on the edge it's for Kaio Saka he hit Christian Norgard
03:24Martinelli
03:25that's a bit of room
03:26behind him and it just incrues Arsenal onto them
03:28Arsenal have got Jesus in behind here and it's Jesus over the goalkeeper and Jesus scoring Arsenal's four
03:36well the Gunners may not get their hands on a fabulous foursome of trophies
03:46and we haven't been playing half an hour yet Gabriel Jesus doing the latest damage
03:53but here's Joe Taylor the wrong side of the Arsenal defence and it's a great save by Kepa
03:58Arida Malaga from point-ranked range from Joe Taylor who thought it's good 12 months because that
04:04England debut and a new contract all came with big fanfare but this season's been slightly trickier for him
04:10I think it's just wandering into midfield Norgard
04:14Jesus wanted that played a little bit earlier battering challenge from Will Ainsen
04:23okay trying to get to the byline lovely looking look across and Mosquera did connect with it but
04:30I think he was also impeded by Raphael who put it out for a corner Raphael did really well there
04:35it's scary Brayson Murray goes on the outside for Wigan Athletic
04:41crossing
04:46leading in the map
04:51that is half-time Wigan needed half-time as well Arsenal with goals from Madweke
04:59and then Martinelli and a run out in this kind of situation Jokeres is coming on at the start of
05:06the
05:07second half
05:13this Arsenal side don't lose too many games
05:17found its way through to Martinelli against the odds but it's gone out of play
05:21Myles Lewis Skelly looking to drop one in behind that defence
05:26it's a bit of a shaky piece of work wasn't it by Weir there
05:30wanted the back pass
05:32okay Martinelli
05:35Norgard to head it down could have been a fifth goal Jesus
05:40this time denied the flags up anyway wouldn't have counted
05:44Lewis Skelly almost like a training ground move at the moment Martinelli
05:50got him in behind but the flag does go up
05:57lovely ball through and off the base of the post for Jokeres
06:02good work again that's better defending from Wigan that time
06:08Kerr got it away maybe that should have been their plan at the start of the game
06:11you know try and send Arsenal wide into one look a little bit bleak and being
06:16third bottom of the league but I think a couple of wins will jump them up about five or six
06:20places
06:21so it can be done
06:22they're on the pitch at the moment we want to score goals
06:25one of those who will keep going and going and
06:28there's that ball into the six-yard box that had to be dealt with by Jason Kerr
06:34did well there
06:41it's a free kick
06:45yeah he's right in front of it
06:47an interview about that recently
06:49here is Jokeres inside the penalty area it's a bit of a wild
06:54already trying to travel down that left-hand side but can't get it back to Callum Wright
06:58a bit of a pressure for Costello went in on the goalkeeper I think he had to go for that
07:05tickle to Costello
07:09I think that's a bit of a rudimentary foul from Lewis Skellig
07:14yeah I think he knew he sort of made the most of that attack Arsenal
07:23well he thought he'd got away for a moment there from Matt Smith
07:28looking for the break there and Eza has done well he tried to find Martinelli
07:36Murray did really well tracking back there to get something in the way done really well
07:45Costello
07:47determined run from him wins a free kick
07:51and a yellow card for North
07:52a bit surprisingly it might still
07:55Zubimendi here
07:56getting the cross in
07:58and another good save
08:00from Sam Tickle
08:02that's an amazing save because Martinelli has to score
08:05and it's a sitter really Zubimendi stands
08:07but it's not
08:07now
