Arsenal saw off Fulham in extra-time to squeeze through to the fifth round of the FA Youth Cup at Underhill.
Austin Lipman was the hero, striking in the 108th minute after nutmegging a defender.
The Gunners outplayed their opponents in the first half, Anthony Jeffrey opening the scoring after Jack Jebb had played him in.
Muamer Tankovic got the Cottagers back on level terms in the second half.
Neither team could edge a fierce and exciting encounter in 90 minutes, so the game went to extra time and Lipman worked his magic.
