Arsenal lost to Newcastle United in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semifinals and were subsequently eliminated from the competition.
Mikel Arteta fielded the same lineup that scored five goals against Manchester City this past weekend, though the overall performance couldn't have been more different. Overturning a two goal deficit at a hostile ground like St. James' Park against a talented Newcastle United side was always going to be difficult, but the team was lifeless. Alexander Isak gave them an early wake-up call with a goal that ended up being overturned by VAR.
