Kepa & Arsenal highlight how promises create ‘real problems’

Kepa Arrizabalaga’s costly error in the 2026 Carabao Cup final has seen Arsenal highlight how selection promises can cause “real problems”.

Kepa is the hero! Arsenal reach Carabao Cup semis on penalties

Arsenal goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga was the unlikely hero on Tuesday night as the Gunners sneaked past Crystal Palace and into the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup after a penalty shoot-out. The Gunners went ahead late on thanks to a Maxence Lacroix own goal but were pegged back in stoppage time by Marc Guehi's equaliser. The game finished 1-1 then went to penalties with Kepa saving from Lacroix as Arsenal won 8-7 on spot kicks.
