Olivier Giroud and Theo Walcott smashed a brace each to help Arsenal romp into the quarterfinals of the FA Cup after claiming a thumping 4-0 win over Hull City in the fifth round at the KC Stadium.
Forward Giroud put his side ahead in the 41st minute of the game before he scored his second goal in the 71st minute to double his side lead, the Guardian reported.
Midfielder Walcott then scored two consecutive goals for Arsenal in the 77th and 88th minute to pile further misery on Hull City.
Arsenal, who are standing third in Premier League table, will now lock horns with Watford for the semi-final berth on Sunday.
