Alan Shearer has poked fun at Arsenal legend Ian Wright, as the pair watched on during Newcastle United's victory over the Gunners on Monday evening.
The Magpies took the lead when Ben White turned into his own net after 55 minutes, before Bruno Guimaraes sealed the points with just five minutes remaining.
The victory ensures Arsenal will need to hope North London rivals Tottenham fail to beat Norwich City on the final day, whilst they must overcome Everton to qualify for next season's Champions League.

Eddie Howe's side have seen a terrific upturn following his appointment in November, climbing as high 12th in the Premier League table. And for Shearer, the delight was clear to see, as he jested with Wright during the Premier League's broadcast from their IMG Studio.
"Ah that was a great evening with the brilliant @wrightyofficial and @steve_bower22 it hasn’t been that often that the Toon beat Arsenal eh Wrighty!!!!," wrote the former Toon forward on Instagram.
Seen joyously jumping up and celebrating the victory, Wright looks on distraught, as once again Mikel Arteta's side look to have fallen short at the final hurdle.
A damning away loss at Spurs last week was to be a potential wake up call, before another below par performance in the North East yesterday looks to have all but sealed a disappointing fifth placed finish.
"Do you want a hug? Do you want a cuddle?", began Shearer, as his smug celebrations continued. "I'm only joking I love you really," concluded the 51-year-old.
