Per Mertesacker – 6
Not the BFG’s best display. He looked rather flustered by the occasion.
Laurent Koscielny – 8
Koscielny scored Arsenal’s vital equaliser, displaying fine attacking skills poke a shot home on the turn. At the other end, he made two interceptions and 10 effective clearances.
Mikel Arteta – 7
Arteta was disciplined and carried out his defensive duties well.
Aaron Ramsey – 9
An excellent display from Ramsey, who has been in fine form since returning from his injury lay-off in April. His energy levels were incredible and his finish for the winning goal was out of this world. If only he was English…
Lukas Podolski – 5
Podolski was at fault for Hull’s opener and Arsenal improved significantly after he was replaced by Yaya Sanago on the hour.
Mesut Ozil – 7
Ozil created two chances with key passes and also won three free-kicks. He was withdrawn at half time in extra time to make way for Jack Wilshere.
