Southampton book FA Cup tie with Arsenal after defeating Shrewsbury

Southampton will face Arsenal in the FA Cup fourth-round after beating Shrewsbury Town on Tuesday.

The third-round tie was originally scheduled for 9 January but was moved after a coronavirus outbreak at Shrewsbury.

Daniel N'Lundulu opened the scoring after 16 minutes with a scruffy strike into the bottom corner.

Saints skipper James Ward-Prowse sealed the victory with a minute left on the clock.

Ralph Hasenhuttl's side will now host Arsenal in the fourth round of the competition on Saturday
