Fan favourites bravely fought back from two early goal deficits to beat Hull City 3-2 this evening at Wembley Stadium and win the 2014 English FA Cup. The victory, which ended a long wait for silverware at the Emirates, came courtesy of extra time goal buried in the 109^th minute by Aaron Ramsey after diverting a back-heel from Olivier Giroud into the top corner.

Hull City had launched an early scare with early goals from James Chester in the 4^th minute and Curtis Davies in the 8^th.

Santi Cazorla revived Arsenal’s hopes with a 17^th minute wonder goal off a free kick, with Laurent Koscielny drawing the Gunners level in the 71^st.

After Ramsey’s extra time back breaker, spirited efforts by substitute, Nigerian international Sone Aluko, to equalise for the Tigers proved fruitless, thus ensuring that Arsene Wenger’s nine-year wait for a trophy had finally come to an end.
