Kai Havertz scored in stoppage time against his former club Chelsea to earn Arsenal a 1-0 win in the second leg of the EFL Cup semi-final on Tuesday, sealing a 4-2 victory on aggregate and a ticket to Wembley in March.

‘Deserved to go through’

“We are so happy. Over the last two games, we deserved to go through. It was a long match, we expected that, [but] we wrapped it up at the end in a beautiful way, with Kai [Havertz] scoring the goal in the manner that he did and the reaction from the crowd. It was just magical. So I’m really happy because it was a really tough match against a great opponent and we’re in [the final],” said a delighted Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta.
