Arsenal left it late to beat Newcastle United 2-1 in a thriller at St James’ Park. Gabriel was the match-winner with a towering header from a corner in the sixth minute of second-half stoppage time. Nick Woltemade had opened the scoring against the run of play for the hosts, after Leandro Trossard had rattled the woodwork and Eberechi Eze had tested home goalkeeper Nick Pope countless times from the edge of the Newcastle box.
