Newcastle United clinched a crucial 1-0 victory over Arsenal, with Eddie Howe’s side replicating last season’s heroics at St. James’ Park. This time, Anthony Gordon provided the decisive moment, delivering a stunning cross to set up Alexander Isak, who headed home from close range to secure all three points.
The win over Arsenal, following Newcastle’s recent triumph over Chelsea, marked their first Premier League victory in five games. “It was 95 minutes of concentration and consistency in our attitude,” Howe praised in his post-match comments. “We managed and controlled some very good players pretty well today. It’s three points, but it means so much because we hadn’t won for a while in the Premier League. I’m sure it will do us the world of good.”
Arsenal, on the other hand, suffered a setback in their title race, which seemed in jeopardy until Manchester City’s unexpected defeat at Bournemouth helped to soften the blow. TV host and dedicated Arsenal fan Piers Morgan expressed his frustration, calling the loss a “disaster.”
Meanwhile, Newcastle board member Jamie Reuben took to social media to celebrate the victory, playfully responding to Morgan’s complaints. “So proud of that performance, thank you for the amazing support today,” Reuben said, adding a tongue-in-cheek apology for the result. Morgan acknowledged Newcastle’s deserving win, admitting, “Your boys deserved it.”
The hard-fought victory leaves Newcastle hopeful for a resurgence as they aim to build on this momentum heading deeper into the season.
