Arsenal: 20 Greatest Goals Of Last 20 Years

11. Aaron Ramsey vs. Hull City FA Cup Final 2014

11. Skill: 3- A scrappy, scrappy goal from Arsenal. With their backs against the walls, the Gunners needed to dig deep and find something from nowhere. Clumsy but fortuitous hold up play from Yaya Sanogo and more fantastic link up play from Olivier Giroud set up Aaron Ramsey for a sweet opportunity at glory. The finish itself looks simple enough, but in fact if you look at the speed with which the ball fell to Ramsey, you can see that the Welshman had to strike it perfectly to place it at the near corner.

Opponent: 1- Hull City gave Arsenal fits and they played a very valiant match. However the Tigers haven’t even been able to stay up in the Premiership and now find themselves back down in the Championship. Enough said.

Significance: 7- I know, I know. This is completely breaking the rules that I myself put in place, but I have to do this. Arsenal’s victory at Wembley in 2014 was a huge moment for the club. It signaled the end to a long nine year drought that stretched back to the last time the Gunners won the FA Cup in 2005. This was a huge step toward building as a club. Since this goal, Arsenal have remained on an upward trend. When Arsenal claim a Premier League title sometime soon, we will look back on this goal and say “that’s when it all changed”.
