Arsenal vs Wigan Athletic, 2nd Leg Tied on aggregate WGA win on away goals

FULL-TIME: Wigan steal the away goal that sends them through to their first-ever cup final. Arsenal are stunned.

So, as things stand, it is Wigan going through on the away goal rule. Stunning. Football, eh? A funny old game.

GOAL! Pollitt won't be on the losing side; Roberts stabs past Almunia from close range after muscling his way between two defenders to get on the end of a bouncing ball over the top.

Pollitt doesn't deserve to be on the losing side tonight; he has had a 'worldy.'

SAVE! Bergkamp stumbles as he approaches Pollitt after being put in by Van Persie, and the goalkeeper makes another good save.

OOH! Roberts flashes a header just wide of the far post after getting on the end of a good cross from the left by Baines.

Wigan know that they only need a single goal to snatch the tie from under Arsenal's nose, but they just can't get hold of the ball at the moment.

WOEFUL! Van Persie attempts to fire a low shot inside the far post from the edge of the area. He succeeds in dragging a bobbling effort 15 yards wide.

DISGRACEFUL DIVE! Reyes throws himself to the ground inside the penalty area under absolutely no pressure whatsoever. I hate that. It's cheating. And my mum told me that cheats never prosper.

Arsenal are content to knock the ball about in midfield to try and see out this match.

The free-kick is swung to the near post, where Van Persie shows good defensive awareness to track Roberts' run and block his goal-bound effort.

Chimbonda is booked for something he said to the referee.

Reyes gives away a needless free-kick on the right-edge of the penalty area. A chance for Wigan to load the box and snatch a winning equaliser.

It has taken a piece of brilliance to separate these two ties. However, a Wigan goal would send them through - it's that finely balanced. I, quite literally, am on the edge of my seat.

GOAL! Van Persie wonderfully curls the free-kick in to the top corner; Pollitt was well-beaten. Great goal by the young Dutch magician.

Kavanagh brings down Reyes on the left corner of the Wigan penalty area. Van Persie stands over the ball...

It is the Wigan fans who are making the most noise at the moment, with this inspired chant: "Who needs Mourinho? We've got Paul Jewell-io..."

Pires sends a deep free-kick in to the penalty area, towards Senderos; the ball falls to Bergkamp, but his flicked right-foot effort bounces lamely wide of the far post.

Arsenal kick off the final period of this tie. Can either side muster a goal? I doubt it. But I'm prepared to eat my hat should I be proved wrong.

HALF-TIME, EXTRA-TIME: Both sides look tired. And cold. There seems little prospect of a goal, so we're looking likely to see every fan's favourite finale - a penalty shoot-out.

Bergamp 'pounces' on a mis-control by Scharner, but he can't direct his pass in to the path of Van Persie, who had made a good run to his right.

SAVE! Pollitt continues his remarkable game by saving another one-on-one, this time with Bergkamp, who had sauntered on to a through-ball inside the area.

Baines rather theatrically throws himself to the ground under a Pires 'challenge'. Gilbert is booked for his protest.

It has been a very quiet first period; almost nothing of any note whatsoever has happened.

The referee is having a very poor night; he has bottled every major decision, and is irritating everyone by stopping play far too regularly.
