Arsenal v Newcastle - as it happened

FT: Arsenal 0-0 Newcastle!! All over at the Emirates and the points are deservedly shared. Arsenal were the better team and had more chances while Newcastle looked to defend and play on the counter. Nketiah could have scored late on while a late penalty appeal for handball was rightly turned down by the officials. As for Newcastle, Joelinton's header right on half-time was easily their best chance, but they'll be very happy with the draw. Thanks for joining us and see you again soon!

Corner for Arsenal, it's cleared and that's that!

Zinchenko is cautioned for protesting and Lascelles is booked for preventing the throw-in from being taken-

Xhaka gets into the box and his cross strikes Murphy, but the ref says no pen!! Arsenal and Arteta are fuming but I think it's no penalty as the ball seems to strike his body. VAR checks it and says play on. I agree with that call.

Arsenal have the ball in Newcastle's half, but I can't see them scoring.

It looks this will end goalless and that would be fair.

Newcastle break through Wood, he's all on goal, but he decides to pass instead of shoot and the pass is cut out! Baffling.

Newcastle go forward and the cross ends up over on the far side.

Martinelli! The Brazilian gets his head to the corner at the near post, but the ball goes across the goal rather than towards it.

Arsenal get us going once again! No substitutions!

HT: Arsenal 0-0 Newcastle! Half-time at the Emirates and Arsenal have been the better side, but after a strong opening 10, Newcastle have kept the Gunners at bay. Saka has looked sharp and he had a chance early on as did Odegaard while Gabriel also headed wide later on. Newcastle played on the counter and could have led at half-time had Joelinton not headed wide at the far post. All to play for. Back shortly!

Zinchenko makes a mistake at the back and that allows Newcastle to attack, but nothing comes of it.

Gabriel!! Odegaard's ball in is headed by Gabriel from about 10 yards out and the ball goes wide of Pope's left hand upright!

Odegaard is caught from behind by Joelinton and the foul is awarded 25 yards from goal. The Newcastle man doesn't like the call, but it looks the correct one.

Yet another yellow card. Nketiah this time. I don't think it was enough for a yellow, to be honest.

Callum Wilson catches Saliba high on his left leg with his studs showing and the ref shows him yellow. Not the colour the home crowd wanted to see.

Opportunity for Odegaard!! A danger Gunners move sees White's strike blocked, but Newcastle can't clear their lines and Odegaard then fires over!

The Magpies win the first free-kick of the game and it's around 30-35 yards from goal.

Newcastle get us going from right to left in the black and white while Arsenal are in their usual colours as well!
