Beautiful

Arsenal ruthlessly progressed into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup yesterday with a 2-0 win over Championship high-flyers Middlesbrough. The holders never looked in trouble, and once Olivier Giroud opened the scoring after 27 minutes, there would be no way baack. The Frenchman's second goal, a fine volley finish, got more attention post game but the opener was even arguably more special, as every Arsenal player on the pitch had a hand in it. Check out the video below (skip to 0.23) to see the move unfold and this handy graphic by the Mail shows you each and every pass.
