Eberechi Eze scored the game’s only goal to give the Gunners all three points against Newcastle at Emirates Stadium.

The win over the visitors moved Mikel Arteta’s side to the top of the Premier League table with three points ahead of second-placed Manchester City.

Man City have a game in hand. Pep Guardiola’s side didn’t play a Premier League match this weekend due to their FA Cup semi-final encounter against Southampton.

However, according to OptaJoe, with Arsenal’s goal against Newcastle, they now hold the individual season record in the Premier League for: most goals from corners (17) and most goals from corners to go 1-0 up (10).

Arsenal will now turn their attention to the Champions League as they will face Atletico Madrid in the semi-final on Wednesday.
