Arsenal were a bit unlucky in this match. It goes without saying that Arsenal's performance was poor. Arsenal players try to score. But the performance of Newcastle's defenders was outstanding. They successfully countered every attack from Arsenal's players. And Arsenal were able to launch several powerful and planned attacks. And in the 68th minute, Winger Gordon's goal gave Newcastle the lead. As Arsenal are playing for the title, they should perform more cautiously. If you lose points like this and if there is no consistency in performance, Arsenal will not be able to win the championship.
Newcastle were organized both in terms of defense and attack. Arsenal is a pretty good side who over the year has improved tremendously, sharing one point a piece with Newcastle would have been a great fight and what’s best for the game, but the defense was too strong for Arsenal to even get a draw and share the point.
The goal which seems controversial buh was still was awarded by VAR though. That controversial goal put the L in Arsenal’s run of form, Mikel Arteta has to accept the defeat of yesterday, improve the team’s depth and try to make the team more quick and creative in attack. They’re a pretty good and young side that can pose challenges this season, Let’s watch out for them cause I believe they're not yet left out of the title race, they'll be facing Sevilla during the week so they need to focus and prepare for that, however their next EPL game is an easy one against Burnley.
