Buts : Isak (37e) & Gordon (51e) pour Newcastle
Fourteen years old.
This is the time Newcastle waited to win again on Arsenal’s pitch. The latest success of Magpies at the Emirates dated November 7, 2010 (0-1), and this Tuesday, after thirteen games of drought, they put an end to this curse by winning in the semi-final first leg of the League Cup against the current second in the championship.
A clear victory (0-2)what’s more, despite the 23 London strikes (only 3 on target) and the pressure put on by the Gunners in the second half. In just 7 attempts, the visitors managed to find the target more (four times) and take a break in advance before the return leg scheduled for February 5. Alexander Isak was terrible, opening the scoring as a fox (37e) before being the detonator on the second pawn signed Anthony Gordon (51e). Eddie Howe’s men sign their seventh success in a row here in all competitions.
And the dreams of the final are fading away for the Canonniers.
