"Arsenal cruised into the fifth round of the FA Cup with a 4-0 win over Wigan Athletic that saw them make history with a crushing display of first-half dominance. The Gunners were dealt a blow in the warm-up when left-back Riccardo Calafiori was injured, forcing Mikel Arteta into a change as Bukayo Saka came into the side, with Myles Lewis-Skelly dropping back from midfield and into his more natural position."
"That setback never looked like stopping the Gunners from claiming a dominant win over the struggling League One side, Arsenal becoming the first Premier League side to score four goals in the first 30 minutes of an FA Cup tie as they put the Latics to the sword to keep their hopes of a quadruple alive. Noni Madueke opened the scoring in the 11th minute before Gabriel Martinelli doubled the lead seven minutes later."

Noni Madueke opened the scoring in the 11th minute, Gabriel Martinelli added a second seven minutes later, Jack Hunt’s own goal made it three, and Gabriel Jesus finished calmly to make it 4-0 by the 27th minute. Ben White left injured late, but the rotated Arsenal side delivered a routine victory ahead of key league fixtures.
