We exited the FA Cup on penalties, after a dramatic afternoon at Emirates Stadium.
After a lacklustre, disjointed, opening 45 minutes, the game burst into life early in the second-half. Bruno Fernandes fired the visitors ahead on the counter, but on the hour they were reduced to ten men when Diogo Dalot was dismissed for a second bookable offence.
We took advantage instantly, when Gabriel fired us level with an improvised finish. But Martin Odegaard then saw his penalty saved, and further missed chances sent the game to extra-time.
We couldn't make our numerical advantage count in the extra half-hour though, and so the two teams with the most FA Cup wins in history had to be separated by penalties in the third round.
Havertz saw his penalty saved by Altay Bayindir, and with every other spot kick scored, we were knocked out at the first hurdle.
