Arsenal has been sent out of this season’s FA Cup by Championship side Nottingham Forest on Sunday courtesy of a Lewis Grabban late goal.
It was the second time in four years that Nottingham Forest would knock out the 14 time winners of the FA Cup.
The Gunners dominated possession but were lackluster against their Championship opponents as they failed to find the net.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta after the game admitted that his side was not good enough and apologized for the result.
“We were not good enough and we have to apologize for it.
“I don’t want to use excuses. I expect the team I put out to do better and when you don’t in the cup you are out.
“Today showed we were not capable of winning against Forest away from home and didn’t put in the level to win the game.
It’s a collective issue and today we have not done it.”
It was Nottingham Forest that sent Arsenal out of the FA Cup in 2018.
