Overview
Arsenal, featuring greats like Eddie Hapgood, Alex James and Cliff Bastin and managed by Herbert Chapman, travel to a packed West Ham for the Sixth Round of the FA Cup. The game is played at a hectic pace and unsurprisingly the cameraman failed to capture any goals as the visitors won 3-0. Arsenal went on to win the cup, beating Chapman’s former side Huddersfield in the final.
