Arsenal goalscorer, Bukayo Saka, has described their victory over Newcastle as a big boost to their Premier League campaign.
Saka broke the deadlock in the 56th minute before substitute Gabriel Martinelli doubled the hosts’ advantage a short time later as the Gunners’ perseverance paid off.

“We had to be patient,” Saka told BT Sport.
“They defended really well and they made it difficult for us in the first half.
“The boss told us at half-time, ‘Don’t let them frustrate us’ and I think we listened to that, got the goals and could have got more in the end.”
