Newcastle vs Arsenal LIVE!
Arsenal left it late to beat Newcastle United 2-1 in a thriller at St James’ Park. Gabriel was the match-winner with a towering header from a corner in the sixth minute of second-half stoppage time. Nick Woltemade had opened the scoring against the run of play for the hosts, after Leandro Trossard had rattled the woodwork and Eberechi Eze had tested home goalkeeper Nick Pope countless times from the edge of the Newcastle box.
Mikel Arteta threw the kitchen sink at Eddie Howe’s Magpies in the second 45 minutes, even playing natural midfielder Martin Zubimendi at left-back as he went for broke. That prompted Mikel Merino to step off the substitutes’ bench and flick home a delicious Declan Rice delivery to equalise at the death, and there was still time for Gabriel to rise highest and complete a remarkable comeback to snare all three points.
