Arsenal took a while to get going but eventually were able to progress into the FA Cup fourth round after winning 3-0 against Oxford United. Mikel Arteta named a rotated Gunners side but retained his key attacking threat of Gabriel Martinelli, Bukayo Saka and Eddie Nketiah.
The Premier League leaders were left frustrated in the first half as they failed to find their rhythm in attack. Arsenal found a breakthrough in the second half as Mohamed Elneny powered home a header from Fabio Vieira's wicked free-kick.
Vieira popped up with another brilliant assist as he continues to try and force his way in Arteta's starting team, splitting Oxford's defence with a pass to Nketiah who rounded the goalkeeper and doubled the Gunners' lead. The young striker grabbed his second and Arsenal's third with a clever finish just six minutes later after latching onto Martinelli's pass.
