Gunners send Swansea home
(01-17 11:16)

Arsenal wasted a hatful of good chances before sealing a 1-0 FA Cup third-round replay win over Swansea City thanks to a late Jack Wilshere goal on Wednesday.
Wilshere fired into Michel Vorm's net with a fine left-foot strike from outside the area after 86 minutes following relentless Arsenal pressure in the second half, RTHK reports.
The London club's strike duo of Theo Walcott and Olivier Giroud both had shots blocked on the line as the home team mounted attack after attack.
Arsenal will travel to Championship (second division) Brighton and Hove Albion in the fourth round on the weekend of January 26-27.
