We saw a surprise in the EFL Cup semi-final match and it was very interesting and exciting. Arsenal lost the match and they are very likely to be eliminated from the semi-finals. Newcastle played strongly and with excitement which resulted in them achieving a good result to qualify for the final. Newcastle are two goals ahead in the first leg of the semi-final, of course they will be even stronger against Arsenal in the second leg to qualify for the final. I think Arsenal may not be able to score as many goals in the second leg so their chances of going to the final are also very low.
Newcastle is not a weak team. We have seen that Newcastle has won consistently in the last few matches of the Premier League. Newcastle has continued to win in the last 6 matches of the Premier League. So Newcastle had the ability to defeat Arsenal. And Newcastle won the match 2-0.
However, Arsenal tried their best to win in this match. Arsenal basically dominated the match. But Newcastle's players were tactical. So despite not attacking much, Newcastle won the match 2-0. Arsenal's players had 70% ball possession and made 23 shots. On the other hand, Newcastle's players made only 7 shots, but Newcastle managed to score two goals. Newcastle's defense played very well in this match. At the same time, their match strategy was also good.
