THIRD ROUND
September 24, 2025
Port Vale 0-2 Arsenal
We started our cup journey away to League One side Port Vale, with Kepa keeping a clean sheet on his Gunners first-team debut.
KA: It was a special day because you always remember your first game for the club. A proper cup game, playing away at a smaller stadium with a great atmosphere – a very English atmosphere I would say. It’s a different atmosphere in the cup games and you love to be there. I know English football though, I knew what to expect.
