Eberechi Eze insisted that Arsenal are "doing everything we can to win all the silverware on offer" after they progressed into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.

The Gunners defeated Mansfield Town 2-1, with Eze bagging the winner after Noni Madueke opened the scoring in the first half.

Since January 2025, no player has scored more goals in the FA Cup (first round onwards) than Eze (five), while his eight goal involvements are two more than any other player during this period.

Arsenal have won 35 games in all competitions this season (D8 L3), more than any other big five European league side in 2025-26 and their outright most wins in a single season under Mikel Arteta (previously 34 wins in 2023-24).

The Gunners still lead the way in the Premier League, while they are also in the EFL Cup final and last 16 of the Champions League.

Eze told TNT Sports: "Happy to score. I had the space and the opportunity to shoot. So I took it.

"It was a difficult environment to play in. But we did what we had to do, and we are through to next round, which is the important thing.

"We are working hard, and we are focusing on the process. Otherwise, we won't get there.

"We are working hard and doing everything we can to win all the silverware on offer."

Mansfield became the first side from the third tier of English league football or lower to score an FA Cup goal against Arsenal since Leyton Orient in the fifth round in 2010-11.

Prior to this match, the Gunners had kept eight consecutive clean sheets against such opponents in the competition.

Will Evans, Mansfield's scorer, has been involved in five goals across his last nine FA Cup appearances (four goals, one assist). 

Evans told TNT Sports: "I wanted to prove a point today – not just to the team but to myself as well.

"It's typical, isn't it? For me to have a league goal drought and then come on for a half against Arsenal and have a goal against them.

"Games come thick and fast. We are onto the next game. So you don't really have much time to take it all in.

"One day, I might just go through my old goals and enjoy them. But we got a shift again on Tuesday night [against Reading]."
