Kanu made it 2-1 (3-1 on aggregate) on the night to seal Arsenal’s place in the Cup final against Galatasaray.
Arsenal faced French club Lens in the final four and won the first leg by a solitary goal, scored by Bergkamp in the second minute. Henry would return from suspension in the second leg and promptly kill Lens’ hopes of a comeback by opening the scoring with his seventh goal of the competition, although Lens scored in the 73rd minute through Pascal Nouma to give a degree of respectability to the result. Kanu made it 2-1 (3-1 on aggregate) and sealed Arsenal’s place in the UEFA Cup final against Galatasaray.
