And there is the final whistle - a great Cup tie but Arsenal had just a little too much in reserve to take the win.
90+3
Barnes sees a cross blocked and then LuaLua miss-hits another cross – looks like Arsenal are save now.
90+2
The second of four extra minutes.
90+1

Mackail-Smith goes down as he looks to get his head on a cross. He is appealing for a penalty but Jenkinson did just enough.
90'
Brighton look gassed but they need one final effort.

Ankergen now makes a superb close range save from Podolski as Brighton fail again to clear the corner.

Walcott shows tremendous pace down the left to nick the ball ahead of two Brighton defenders – he is fouled but gets up, runs into the box and Ankergren has to push his effort away for a corner.
87'
Brighton could make a case that it should not have been a corner but rather a free-kick for them as Giroud's effort might have been seen by some referees as dangerous play.

ARSENAL HAVE THE LEAD!!! Brighton have defended corners so well but now they have conceded from one. Ankergren punched clear but only to the edge of the area – Walcott volleyed it back towards goal but it takes a bit deflection of El-Abd's shoulder and nestles into the corner of the net.
85'
Giroud now tries a spectacular overhead kick but it deflects wide for a corner.

LuaLua whips in a superb cross from the left with his right. Flies past everyone though! Arsenal have not convinced defending crosses today.

Giroud close again….Wilshere puts Podolski free down the left the German then cuts it back for Giroud but the French striker is a little off balance and fires into the ground which sees the ball loop over.
81'
Jenkinson with a chance to cross from the right but it just curls a little too far away from Podolski.
80'
Ramsey is furious with himself as he gives the ball away in an attacking area.

Superb pass (missed by whom) finds Walcott inside the box…just takes Walcott a little too long to get the ball under control though and El-Abd is able to clear.

Brighton do look a bit tired now – will take a big effort to earn a replay.

Arsenal have been wasteful with their corners today. Jack Wilshere with two poor back-to-back efforts there.

Decent free-kick from Giroud but it just doesn't quite drop down in time and goes over the bar.

Mackail-Smith on for Ulloa before the free-kick.
