The balance between the two teams, which exchanged boring battles in the first half, was broken in the eighth minute of the second half. Declan Rice's corner kick led to Yulien Timber's header and broke the net.

In the 27th minute of the second half, Thomas Partey, who received Bukayo Saka's corner, connected it with a header and was sucked into the goal as it was hit by William Saliba's body in front of him. The goal came from Marcus Rashford's mistake in Manchester United's camp, which gave him a chance to take a corner with his unreasonable individual skills and unstable ball trapping.

Both teams had similar ball possession ratios of 50-50, but Arsenal's number of shots was overwhelming. Arsenal scored 14 shots in this round, six of them heading into the net. However, Manchester United had only five shots and two shots on target.
