League cup results:
Arsenal 1-1 Doncaster utd(2-2 after extratime)<3-1>
Middlesbrough 0-1 Blackburn Rovers
Arsenal scrap through
Lucky arsenal scrap through to the semi-finals with a 3-1 penalty victory. The gunners was heading to a 4th conseciutive domestic defeat when Doncaster led them at extra time till Gilberto Silva equalised in the 120th minute. Blackburn qualified through to the semis after beating 2004 champion middlesbrough with a late dickov strike.
League Cup draw
Arsenal and Manchester United avoid each in the league cup semi finals. Manchester united are paired with Blackburn to set up a re-match of the 2002/2003 semis when Manchester United drew 1-1 at Ewood park and beat them at old trafford. Incedentally, united had earlier lost to Blackburn in the league before the semis. Sir Alex would hope history can repeat itself.
Arsenal will face premiership highflyers Wigan who currently sit above the gunners in the EPL table. The last time they met, Wigan and Arsenal enjoyed a great 3-2 match which the gunners won with 2 henry strikes. Arsenal will be hoping for thesame although the frenchmen might not feature in the competiton.
