Wenger: The magic of the Cup is still alive

Manager Arsène Wenger has praised the commitment, passion and determination of Cardiff City after the championship-side held his team to a 0-0 draw.

Wenger said: "The tradition of England was shown today.

"Everywhere you go you know you must fight like mad to go through and that is why the FA Cup is fantastic.

"It was a great day. We wanted to win the game but it was a typical afternoon of complete support from their crowd and complete commitment from their team. You needed something special to win the game

"I enjoyed it because the people were frenetic - and some were fanatic - but overall they were fair."
