Although he named a team containing seven defenders, Sir Alex Ferguson's gamble was rewarded with goals either side of the interval from Fabio and Wayne Rooney.
Arsenal finished the match with 10 men after Johan Djourou was carried off on a stretcher.
No Mistake

But Lee then made no mistake with his close-range header a minute from time to end Birmingham's hopes of a cup double.
