Arsenal fans react to Mesut Ozil shoulder barge on non-league player on social media
Arsenal beat Lincoln City 5-0 in the FA Cup Sixth Round at the Emirates on Saturday 13 March to reach the semi-finals.
The victory over a non-league side is not exactly going to make up for getting knocked out of the Champions League 10-2 on aggregate but it is a start on the road to recovery.

Mesut Ozil featured in the 5-0 victory after recovering from a flu which saw him miss the 3-1 defeat against Liverpool and most of the Bayern game.
Ozil did not add to his assist or goal ratio but he did pull off one mighty impressive shoulder barge which went down well with the fans.
The Germany international of Turkish origin is sometimes accused of being too soft.
Perhaps he has turned over a new leaf?
We took a look at how Arsenal fans reacted to the shoulder barge on social media.

Incredible punditry from Chris Sutton
Chris Sutton the same pundit who would tear into Ozil had he not put in effort today. Hearing him rage at that shoulder barge is fantastic.

I've seen Arsenal go unbeaten but nothing will top Chris Sutton's anger at Ozil shoulder barging a Lincoln player today.
