THE NOTEBOOK: Sandro Tonali looks on from the stands, Bruno Guimaraes should have been sent off and Ben White's new look

Newcastle United secured an excellent 1-0 win over Arsenal courtesy of a controversial goal from Anthony Gordon.

In a fiery game referee Stuart Atwell had plenty to think about when Kai Havertz flew in late on Sean Longstaff and Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimaraes almost being sent off for the rash use of his elbow.

The deadlock remained unbroken up until the 67th minute when Jacob Murphy pulled his effort wide, but former Arsenal man Joe Willock bust a gut to keep the ball in and cross to the back post for Gordon to slam home after a small scramble.
