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.
Of course, the EFL Cup first leg semi-final match was very interesting and exciting to watch. I thought that since Arsenal are number two in the Premier League points table, they are also a much stronger team in the Premier League. So they could easily win against Newcastle in this EFL Cup match, but my thinking is completely opposite. In this match, Arsenal advanced a lot in ball passing and ball position, that is, Arsenal's percentage of ball possession was high, but they could not score a single goal against Newcastle. There is one Newcastle player who consistently performs well and that player is Isak. He scored a goal in yesterday's match. He has already reached the 50-goal milestone for his club Newcastle.
