Arsenal’s men’s side beat Bournemouth 2-1 away on Monday night while on Sunday, the women’s team beat West Ham 2-0, also away, thanks to goals from Katie McCabe and Lia Walti, who scored her first for the club to seal progression to the fifth round.

Arsenal’s men’s team will now face Portsmouth at Fratton Park, on a date yet to be confirmed because the TV companies have to decide who they want to show in addition to Manchester United, who get picked no matter who they play or how badly they are playing simply due to the size of their fanbase.

We do know, however, that the games will be midweek as the FA approved Thursday games for the competition for the first time.

There will be no replays in the fifth round with games going to extra time and penalties on the night should any games finish as a draw after 90 minutes. But, of course, we will carry on wondering why the magic of the cup is being lost.
