The London "Arsenal" team, which found itself in a pit, exited the FA Cup on Sunday.

The "Gunners" eliminated "Manchester United" from the tournament after a penalty shootout on Sunday.

After the defeat, Arsenal's manager Mikel Arteta stated that his team undoubtedly deserved to win.

"It's just incredible. It's clear that we need to look at the performances of the teams. It's obvious to everyone that we should have won the match convincingly.

The reality is different, and we have exited the tournament. That’s what everyone will focus on, but personally, I cannot think that way.

I love my players and know how good they can be. Even playing well for a thousand matches, you still have to lose at some point. That's exactly how this match was. We have to understand that and just move forward," M. Arteta said when speaking to the BBC.
