Watch to see how a double deflection off Marcos Alonso and Antonio Rudiger drew Arsenal level in their Carabao Cup game with Chelsea at the Emirates

Arsenal scored in rather fortunate fashion against Chelsea in their Carabao Cup semi-final as Nacho Monreal's header took a double deflection before going in.

The Spain international left-back attempted to head the ball on target during the first half at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday night, and saw his effort deflect off Marcos Alonso and Antonio Rudiger before beating the helpless Willy Caballero in the Chelsea goal.

It was an excellent response from Arsenal, who had fallen behind a few minutes earlier in the second leg of the tie after Eden Hazard had fired home.

The Gunners went on to win 2-1 on the night and by the same scoreline on aggregate to set up a final against Manchester City at Wembley on Sunday, February 25.
