Danny Welbeck scored the winner on his return to Old Trafford to give Arsenal a 2-1 victory over Manchester United and book their place in the FA Cup semi-finals.
The United academy graduate was deemed surplus to requirements last summer by Louis van Gaal but came back to haunt his former side by netting the decisive goal in a captivating cup clash.
Nacho Monreal had given the Gunners the lead in the 25th minute but United quickly levelled thanks to Wayne Rooney’s header.
Welbeck restored Arsenal's advantage on the hour mark when he capitalised on Antonio Valencia's underhit backpass and beat David de Gea.
United's misery was compounded when Angel Di Maria was sent off for pulling referee Michael Oliver's shirt in frustration at being booked for diving.
The Gunners will now meet either Bradford or Reading in the last four at Wembley.
