    Newcastle 1-0 Arsenal

    Arsenal keeper Aaron Ramsdale clearly has butter - or a non-dairy version - on his gloves. He spills a corner, I have no idea how, and Alexandre Lacazette, back on the pitch, bails him out.

    Ben White almost scores a second own goal! This time he slides a cross the right side of the post.

    I once scored a hat-trick of own goals at school. Not my greatest moment.

    Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette has a nasty cut on the back of the head and he needs patching up. I didn't see how that happened.

    Arteta might have a new deal (hope it was worth it)but some of the players may need to consider their worth after 10-12 non appearances for matches. A disgraceful show.

    Callum Wilson almost gets his goal now. Bruno Guimaraes does well on the right to hold up the ball and dig out a cross to WIlson, who volleys over.

    Now Joelinton smacks a volley over from 25 yards after the Gunners failed to deal with a long ball into Wilson.

    Michael Devlin: That goal might be what Arsenal needed. They’ve been playing far too conservatively.

    Arsenal bring on a striker in Alexandre Lacazette for a left-back in Nuno Tavares. Two up front.

    Terrible from Gabriel Martinelli. Nuno Tavares finds the Arsenal sub on the edge of the box and I don't even know if it's a shot or a cross but it goes miles wide.

    Ben White is just the second Arsenal player to score an own goal against Newcastle in the Premier League, after Martin Keown in September 1994.

    What do Arsenal have in response? This is a big test of their mental strength. Their season is on the line here.

    They're getting a sub ready.

    Apologies to the few of you making 'Callum Wilson shows he isn't toothless' jokes on Twitter that I said it was his goal.

    It was actually a Ben White own goal, not a Callum Wilson strike. The Arsenal defender got the crucial touch.

    If it ends like this, Spurs only need a point at Norwich next Sunday to qualify for the Champions League.

    Ben White og

    This is a huge goal in the Champions League race.

    Joelinton powers down the left wing and plays a lovely ball to Callum Wilson, who tries to sweep it in from six yards out.

    But it's actually Ben White who sends it into his own net.

    Someone who isn't me needs to do big research into how many short corners v long corners lead to goals. I'd like to know. But again, don't want to do the work myself.

    Arsenal have a corner now with Cedric Soares playing it short to Martin Odegaard.

    Odegaard whips a nice ball into the area but nobody can get it.

    It looks like Mikel Arteta has had enough of what he's seen. He's given his players five minutes or so to show something but now he's going to make a change.

    Arsenal know things aren't working. Gabriel Martinelli replaces Emile Smith Rowe to freshen things up.

    The Gunners have a bonus change because of Newcastle's concussion sub.

    Bruno Guimaraes steps over the free-kick and Matt Targett whips it straight into the gloves of Aaron Ramsdale.

    Another Toon free-kick as Miguel Almiron skips past Granit Xhaka, who brings him down. Crossing range.
