Santi Cazorla revisits his FA Cup Final goal from 2014 with FATV
With his side two goals down against Hull City, Arsenal’s Santi Cazorla knew he had to produce something special as he placed down the ball for a free-kick in the 2014 FA Cup Final.

The Spanish midfielder did exactly that with a fabulous effort, one he “didn’t know where it was going until the last second”, to provide a lifeline for the Gunners.

The strike sparked his side into life, and they produced a famous comeback to win 3-2 after extra-time – but there was no doubt it was Cazorla’s moment of magic that saw the tide turn in Arsene Wenger’s side’s favour.

As he prepares to play in his second FA Cup Final on Saturday, when Arsenal face Aston Villa at Wembley, Cazorla sat down with FATV to revisit his momentous set-piece strike.
