Arsenal were pushed to the limit by Mansfield's heroes in an FA Cup classic - but they have three stars to thank as they survived to remain on course for the Quadruple, writes OLIVER HOLT


If the task that lay ahead of them was not difficult enough anyway, Mansfield gift-wrapped a chance for Arsenal inside the first four minutes. Liam Roberts tried to pass the ball out of goal but played it straight to Dowman. Oates was causing all manner of problems for Riccardo Calafiori on Arsenal’s left flank and Mansfield peppered the Arsenal goal with shots. Roberts pushed away a low shot but Martinelli retrieved it and played it back to Noni Madueke. Dowman and Madueke combined beautifully in midfield, Madueke raced away and played the ball wide to Dowman.
