Arsenal defeated Chelsea to reach the Carabao Cup final for the first time in eight years following a 1-0 victory in the semi-final second leg on Tuesday night.
Arsenal had put themselves in pole position in the first leg and Kai Havertz came off the bench to finish the 4-2 aggregate victory in the closing moments at the Emirates Stadium.
It was a cathartic triumph for the Gunners, who had lost their previous four semi-finals in the 2025 Champions League and Carabao Cup, the 2022 Carabao Cup, and the 2021 Europa League.
In their first final for six years, Arsenal will face Manchester City or Newcastle at Wembley on March 22, 2026.

Arsenal haven’t won the Carabao Cup since 1993, losing in their last three final appearances.
Now they have the chance to end that drought by winning the club’s first trophy since the 2020 FA Cup.
That remains the sole silverware won by manager Mikel Arteta since he was hired in December 2019.
