    Ben Brereton (L) scored and produced a superb display in Nottingham Forest’s 4-2 FA Cup win over holders Arsenal

    Nottingham Forest scored two penalties to knock holders Arsenal out of the FA Cup after a thrilling 4-2 victory at the City Ground on Sunday.

    Eric Lichaj headed Forest in front in the 20th minute and then scored a brilliant volley late in the first half after Per Mertesacker had equalised for Arsenal.



    Ben Brereton made it 3-1 when he converted a penalty after half-time, only for Danny Welbeck to give the Gunners a lifeline when he replied in the 79th minute.

    But Kieran Dowell hit back with Forest’s second penalty of the game, despite slipping and appearing to kick the ball with both feet, and the hosts held on for a famous win even after Joe Worrall was sent off.
