LONDON (Reuters) - FA Cup holders Arsenal suffered their first third-round defeat for 22 years as they crashed to a 4-2 defeat by second-tier Nottingham Forest in a sizzling City Ground clash on Sunday. Penalties by Ben Brereton and Kieran Dowell sealed victory for Forest who sacked manager Mark Warburton a week ago. Overall our performance wasn't good enough," Wenger, whose side play Chelsea in a League Cup semi-final first leg next week, said. "This football club should be playing against the Arsenals of this world, and they should be beating them," caretaker manager Gary Brazil said. Former Arsenal player Armand Traore was then brought down by Mathieu Debuchy as he surged into the box in the 84th minute and Forest were awarded another penalty.
