Newcastle Ends Winless Streak with 1-0 Arsenal Win

Newcastle United secured a 1-0 victory over Arsenal, with Alexander Isak scoring the decisive goal from an Anthony Gordon cross in the 12th minute. This victory ended Newcastle's five-game winless streak and marked Arsenal's third consecutive Premier League match without a win. Arsenal, lacking creativity without the injured Martin Odegaard, failed to seriously threaten Newcastle's defense, with Declan Rice's late header being their best chance. The win elevated Newcastle to eighth place in the league standings, while Arsenal remained third. This result leaves Arsenal potentially eight points behind league leaders Manchester City, who have a game in hand. The match was a repeat of last year's fixture where Newcastle also won 1-0, underscoring Newcastle's defensive resilience and strategic gameplay.
