Arsenal continued to apply the pressure on Manchester City at the top of the Premier League on Sunday with an impressive first-half performance at Newcastle.
The Gunners raced into a 1-0 lead early on at St James' Park thanks to Martin Odegaard's 15 league goal of the season from long range. His strike came only moments after VAR overturned a penalty for Newcastle after video replays showed the ball ricocheted off Jakub Kiwior's thigh before striking his arm.
Mikel Arteta's men were the better team in the opening 45 minutes and should have stretched their lead with a number of clear-cut chances. Both Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka wasted opportunities before Odegaard failed to beat Nick Pope in injury time.
