Eberechi Eze (2).webp
The Digest:

Arsenal moved three points above Manchester City at the top of the Premier League with a nervy 1-0 win over Newcastle at the Emirates Stadium. Eberechi Eze scored a stunning strike from the edge of the box in the ninth minute following a well-worked corner. However, both Kai Havertz and Eze had to be substituted with injuries. Havertz went straight down the tunnel looking glum, while Eze was able to take a seat on the bench.

Key Points:
  • Arsenal have not won the league since 2004, a 22-year wait.
  • Yoane Wissa missed a great chance to equalise for Newcastle.
  • Bukayo Saka made his first appearance since last month's Carabao Cup final loss.
  • Newcastle argued Nick Pope should have been sent off for fouling Viktor Gyokeres.
  • The injuries are a concern ahead of Wednesday's Champions League trip to Atletico Madrid.
The win keeps Arsenal's title hopes alive, but injury concerns cast a shadow over the victory.
