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.
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.
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.
