Arsenal scrape past Rotherham

Arsenal 1 Rotherham 1 (after extra time Arsenal win 9-8 on penalties)

Jeremie Aliadiere put Arsenal ahead after 12 minutes but Darren Byfield struck with just 35 seconds of normal time remaining to force extra time.

Rotherham keeper Mike Pollitt was sent off for deliberate handball during the first extra period but as penalties became inevitable, both teams scored eight successful kicks, before Chris Swailes was denied by Graham Stack and Wiltord made no mistake.
