The FA Cup will not have a new owner. Arsenal dominated most of the game to defeat Aston Villa 4-0, in order to become the most winning side in the tournament's history. Furthermore, Arsene Wenger ties George Ramsey as the winningest coach in the FA Cup with six titles, surpassing Sir Alex Ferguson in the process.
Theo Walcott was started by Wenger after his hat-trick last week, and the speedy Englishman did not disappoint Le Prof, scoring the first goal of the game. Alexis Sanchez and Mertesacker broadened the gap after the break, giving the Gunners total control of the game. When the game was coming to its end, Olivier Giroud scored the final goal of the tournament, starting celebrations for the North London side.
Arsenal won its 12th title in 19 FA Cup final appearances, thus beoming the most winning team in the FA Cup. On the other hand, Aston Villa wil try next year to end their drought, since they won their last Cup back in 1957.
After their great performance, fans and experts had their say about this new piece of silverware added to the team's trophy case. Here are the best tweets regarding Arsenal's victory.
