Manchester United are one step closer to making their dream of winning four trophies in one season come true after beating Arsenal 3-1 (4-1 on aggregate).

It was a great performance from Man Utd at Emirates Stadium and they were cruising at half time with two early goals from Park Ji-Sung and Cristiano Ronaldo.

In the second half it was pretty much the same thing with Man Utd dominating and in the 60th minute Ronaldo finished a classic counter attack which put the game out of Arsenal's reach.

But in the 75th minute Darren Fletcher tackled Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas in the box and gave Arsenal a penalty and got sent off. But was it a penalty? Fletcher clearly won the ball and now he has to miss the final. Robin Van Persie finished beautifully but it wasn't a penalty.

Now, all that everyone cares about is the final. Will Man Utd win or will it be Barcelona, who beat Chelsea on away goals by drawing 1-1 at Stamford Bridge. The final is being shown on ITV 1 and Sky Sports on Wednesday 27th May.
