Arsenal vs Newcastle: Match Analysis and Result
Arsenal KO’d at Home by Newcastle: Analysis of a Surprising Carabao Cup Match!
Hey football fanatics! 👋
Well, we had quite a surprise last night in the Carabao Cup! Arsenal, at home, were stunned by a determined Newcastle side. The final score: 0-2 for the Magpies. A result that hurts, especially when you look at the stats… but hey, that’s football, right?
Arsenal’s Sterile Domination: Possession Isn’t Everything
Let’s be honest, Arsenal had control of the ball with 62% possession compared to Newcastle’s 38%. But as they often say, possession isn’t everything! The Gunners, despite moving the ball around, failed to convert their chances. We saw a somewhat sterile game, without any real danger for the Newcastle defense. It seems like they forgot how to make the net bulge, which is a shame.
Newcastle, Efficiency at its Purest
On the other side, Newcastle played a solid match, with ruthless efficiency. Despite having less possession, they were sharp in front of goal. Goals from A. Isak (38th minute) and A. Gordon (51st minute) sealed the Magpies’ victory. We saw a well-organized team that knew how to exploit Arsenal’s weaknesses. That’s the football we love, isn’t it?
The Stats That Speak: A Deceptive Domination
- Possession: Arsenal 62% – Newcastle 38%
- Shots: Arsenal 10 – Newcastle 6
- Corners: Arsenal 11 – Newcastle 1
- Offsides: Arsenal 2 – Newcastle 0
These stats clearly show Arsenal’s domination, but also their lack of realism. They had more shots, more corners, but in the end, it’s Newcastle who walk away with the victory. It’s proof that football isn’t just about stats, but also about efficiency and mentality.

In any case, this match gave us a nice surprise and reminds us that in football, nothing is ever guaranteed. We can’t wait to see the rest of the competition! And what did you think? Tell me in the comments! 😉
