In the 25th minute of today’s FA Cup final encounter between London rivals Arsenal and Chelsea, the Gunners drew level thanks to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
Aubameyang latched onto the ball after a long pass down the field, the centre-forward was holding off Cesar Azpilicueta before the Blues skipper dragged him down in the box.
The referee immediately called for a spot-kick and a VAR review confirmed this was the correct decision, Aubameyang stepped up and sent penalty specialist Willy Caballero the wrong way with a fine strike.
Take a look at the Arsenal skipper’s confident spot-kick and the call leading to it below:
