(Source: Reuters)Arsenal fought back from a goal down against old foes Chelsea to reach the League Cup final as Granit Xhaka poked home to complete a 2-1 second-leg win on Wednesday that set up a Wembley showdown with Manchester City. Midfielder Xhaka turned predator 15 minutes after halftime to finish from close range and Arsenal stayed rock-solid at the back for the rest of the game to set up an enticing final against Premier League leaders City on Feb. 25. The Emirates was subdued as Chelsea bossed the ball but a fortuitous leveller after 12 minutes brought the home crowd back to life and sparked Arsenal’s revival.
