90’
FULL TIME. A brilliant match. Newcastle were so intense and pumped up by their fans but Arsenal created the better first half chances. They got a key second through an own goal to make it 2-0. Some huge displays from Xhaka, Jesus and Martinelli. The Gunners stood up to everything the Magpies threw at them, especially the physical intimidation. Arteta will be incredibly proud. Newcastle 0-2 Arsenal.
90’
+6' YELLOW card: Nketiah and Schar are both booked for some shoving. This has been a bad-tempered match.
90’
+2' SAVE! Saint-Maximin cuts inside onto his left foot and curls a low shot. It forces Ramsdale to plunge to his left and push it to safety.
90’
Added time: six minutes.
90’
WIDE! Schar takes the ball down and hits a left-footed half volley but it flashes over the crossbar.
87’
We've had four sets of triple substitutions in the last ten minutes. It's broken the game up, which has suited Arsenal.
86’
SUB, Arsenal: Saka and Jesus go off with Nketiah and Nelson coming on.
84’
We have about 10 minutes left. Arsenal lead 2-0 and they've stood up superbly to a very physical Newcastle team. They may not win the league but this is the sort of gritty display we often see from Champions.
82’
SUBS, Newcastle: Joelinton goes off injured and Anderson comes on. Burn is off for Targett too.

Newcastle just look so dangerous. They're moving the ball brilliantly with sharp two touch play. Trippier's cross is sent behind for a corner but the Gunners defend it well. The move ends with Jorginho winning a header and getting bumped by Joelinton.
