Here is the equaliser, by the way.
The disappointing Giroud makes way for Welbeck.
On
D. Welbeck
Off
O. Giroud
The woodwork saves Arsenal again as Fernandinho's thunping header crashes off the bar from a corner!
Arsenal counter-attack and work the ball to Ozil who momentarily looks to be through on goal but he cuts back onto his left foot and is promptly tackled by Otamendi.
So close! Toure's 20-yard volley is tipped onto the post by Cech and bounces out!
Bravo races off his line to head clear with Giroud looking to get on the end of a through ball.
Toure plays a nice one-two with De Bruyne but then can't find Aguero with the through ball.
On the balance of play in this half, that was certainly deserved. The game is getting a bit stretched now.
GOAL! 1-1! Oxlade-Chamberlain picks out Monreal with a lovely cross and the left-back volleys in at the back post off the outside of his right foot.
Goal
N. Monreal
Here's the goal.
Aguero has scored in three consecutive FA Cup games.
Fernandinho trips Xhaka to become the second man in the book.
Yellow card
Fernandinho
Gabriel does well to break up a Man City breakaway, but elbows Sane in the face in the process and is very fortunate to escape without a card.
Back to the goal, it was a nice finish but Cech really should have done better. If he'd moved quicker Aguero wouldn't have got the shot off.
Nice turn from Ozil to create some space 16 yards from goal but he then drags his shot wide.
GOAL! It's Aguero! From an Arsenal corner, Toure wins the ball and releases Aguero with a long ball which he latches onto and then, one-on-one dinks the ball over Cech when it looked like he'd overrun it.
Goal
S. Agüero
An hour gone now and Arsenal are growing in confidence.
What a strange world we live in.
Otamendi and Ramsey kick each other going for a 50-50 and both are hurt, but City get the free-kick. A few seconds earlier Bravo slipped at an inopportune time but Sanchez wasn't quick enough to make him pay.
Sanchez ins Arsenal a free-kick right on the edge of the box and takes it himself, rolling the ball to the unmarked Xhaka whose shot is blocked.
