Arsenal ran away in the second half after the first half ended with a 7th-minute goal from Mesut Özil and a sloppy equalizer from Romelu Lukaku. In the second half, though, it was all Arsenal—Mikel Arteta put home a penalty-kick (twice, as it turned out, after the first one was waved off because Giroud stepped into the box too early) and then Giroud more than atoned for the misstep by adding a brace. We’ve booked a place in the semifinal at Wembley!
With apologies to those who have tried to stop by earlier, I have reposted the clip. Enjoy!
