MATCH REPORT
While there can't be many Arsenal fans who want to relive that game, here's our match report just in case.
End of 2nd Half
FT
FULL TIME - NEWCASTLE 2-0 ARSENAL
It's a horrible, horrible night for Arsenal, whose performance merited nothing other than defeat.
They will go into their final game against Everton two points behind Spurs and hoping for a favour from rock-bottom Norwich. It'll be interesting to see how Arteta rationalises this one.
