Mikel Arteta described Arsenal's FA Cup third-round defeat to Manchester United on Sunday as a one-in-a-thousand occurrence after losing in a dramatic penalty shootout at Emirates Stadium. Bruno Fernandes put the visitors in front on 52 minutes before Diogo Dalot was sent off nine minutes later for a late tackle on Mikel Merino.

Mikel Arteta not sure about trophy hopes after ‘incredible’ loss - Arsenal’s early FA Cup exit comes just four days after they were dealt a blow in their bid to reach the Carabao Cup final.

Mikel Arteta said his Arsenal team “deserved to win by a mile” as they fell to an “unbelievable” FA Cup defeat at home against Manchester United.
