Tomiyasu threads it through to Martinelli, who takes a tumble inside the box under pressure from Lascelles. He requires treatment but Arsenal aren't going to get a penalty.

Shot! Willock finds space for a shot against his former club but can't test Ramsdale as the Arsenal goalkeeper makes a comfortable save.

Newcastle come forward with intent as Murphy receives the ball on the right. He tries to pick out a team mate at the far post but his cross has too much pace and goes out harmlessly for a goal-kick.

Another chance for Arsenal! Newcastle commit bodies forward they're leaving spaces in behind at the back. Smith Rowe threads a pass into the feet of Aubameyang but Dubravka is out quickly to block his shot.

GOAL! Arsenal 2-0 Newcastle (Gabriel Martinelli): Just two minutes after he's come on, Martinelli scores - with his first touch! Tomiyasu plays him in, Martinelli allows the ball to drop over his shoulder and he lifts it over the on-rushing Dubravka into the corner of the net!

Wilson is played in with a lovely ball over the top. He's fast but Tavares is equally as pacy and the Arsenal defender does brilliantly to make the challenge. Newcastle want a penalty - no chance.
