Arsenal Beat Reading, Head To Wembley To Defend FA Cup

Arsenal reach the FA Cup Final for the second year in a row after Alexis Sanchez scores twice at Wembley to beat Reading 2-1 after extra-time.

The Chilean forward put the Gunners ahead before half-time as he controlled Mesut Ozil’s fine pass and calmly shot low from inside the area.
Gareth McCleary then leveled the scoreline for the Championship side as Wojciech Szczesny failed to keep out his low volley.

Reading’s dominance was only temporary, however, as Adam Federici pulled off a magnificent save to divert Gabriel’s header onto the crossbar.
