At least today Newcastle has proven that they are able to hold Arsenal game without a single goal. And this was already a surprise for Arteta because he was unable to penetrate the Newcastle defense. I was quite amazed at what the Newcastle players showed. This once again proves that for the next game, Newcastle can have the potential for a Champions League ticket. It remains only to see the progress of Man City who must be more consistent in pressing Newcastle.
A great result for Newcastle and a shock for Arsenal, I'm sure few predicted the results would be a draw. If Newcastle can play in the champions league next season they will definitely buy some more players to increase their competition in the league and in European competition, their defense is good enough and it would be better if they had a sharp striker to make them even stronger.
I enjoyed this game even though it was scoreless but in fact their game was full of attacks and Newcastle were able to survive with a lot of pressure from Arsenal, and it was a balanced match if you look at the game that was seen last night.
Looks like Newcastle will do that because European competition is very prestigious and big, so several players will be bought to strengthen all the lines needed by Eddie Howe.
Now the Premier League is getting more interesting between the standings 2-4 as Manchester United continues to show good performance with a good win now one point away from Manchester city and level with Newcastle.
Now a tight rival to catch Arsenal.
In truth, the Premier League throws up surprises. The first thought after the end of the match Arsenal - Newcastle was: how is it?! Why Arsenal couldn't win. Now this allowed M.City to approach them a little closer.
The difference in points in 2-4 places is more than 1, because M.City have 1 more match left, the results of which will make it clear whether Manchester United and Newcastle have a chance to move M.City from second place. It seems to me that Newcastle is not a rival here, because they already have 18 games and will soon lose their current 3rd place to M.United. But as always there is a nuance. Their nearest rival is M.City and the question is whether M.United will be able to resist their onslaught. It looks like we are going to see very interesting matches, when the price of victory will be very high, and the defeat is very dangerous for losing a position in the tournament.
