Arsenal FC continues to impress Premier League fans around the globe after beating a hapless Newcastle side by a scoreline of 2-0. The win was even more spectacular as youngsters Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli were the two goalscorers in the game. However, while Saka limped off after being injured, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was the highlight of the evening.

Arsenal could’ve been up by a goal at half-time after a failed clearance from Dubravka fell to Aubamayeng. However, the Gabonese striker couldn’t score the goal and hit the post from three yards out, leaving fans shellshocked.

Good day for Arsenal, not so good for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

The two goals scored by Arsenal were sumptuous, as Bukayo Saka scored the opener from a very tight angle. After he limped off the field, Gabriel Martinelli was brought in for Saka and the young Brazilian scored a fantastic volley with Takehiro Tomiyasu getting the assist.

This defeat brings Newcastle’s points tally to six from thirteen games and the club remains at the bottom of the Premier League table after failing to score in their seventh successive match. This was Eddie Howe’s debut match for the club and Newcastle fans will be wary of the way the club is going right now.
