Arsenal’s last defeat in an FA Cup final came against Liverpool in that memorable game in 2001, when Michael Owen scored twice late on to seal a dramatic turnaround for the Reds.
Since then, however, Arsenal have been dominant in this competition, and have now won the trophy more than any other club in history, picking up the cup 14 times.
