Gabriel Jesus' hat-trick propelled Arsenal into the EFL Cup semi-finals with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Crystal Palace.

Arsenal's comeback against Crystal Palace secured their spot in the EFL Cup semi-finals. Jean-Philippe Mateta's early goal gave Palace the advantage, which they held until the second half. Gabriel Jesus, struggling with form recently, ignited Arsenal's resurgence with a decisive hat-trick. Although former Arsenal player Eddie Nketiah netted a late goal, it proved insufficient as Arsenal triumphed 3-2.

Arsenal will await the semi-final draw and have landed a psychological blow over Palace, who they meet in the Premier League at Selhurst Park on Saturday.
