Watch the official Newcastle 2 Arsenal 0 match highlights below.
United were at it from the very first whistle.
Alexander Isak with a superb performance and doing everything but score.
A very dodgy VAR supposed offside denying him a brilliant fourth minute opener after he smashed it past Raya into the top corner.
Then 15 minutes later he had the Arsenal central defenders floundering yet again, this time his left foot beauty smashing off the left post.
Thankfully though a little but of deserved luck then came our way, as it rebounded across goal and Jacob Murphy did really well to make it look easy, as he finished. Plenty of those get missed.
Plenty of other chances for United but a marauding Fabian Schar turned up on the edge of Arsenal’s penalty area to brilliantly dispossess the vastly overrated Declan Rice, with Gordon stroking the ball home to make it 2-0 on the night, 4-0 on aggregate.
Watch the goals AND the celebrations.
See for yourselves.
