Newcastle United recorded back-to-back wins at St James' Park on Saturday afternoon with a 1-0 win over title-chasers Arsenal.

One goal was all that was needed to put Mikel Arteta's Arsenal side down at St James' Park for the second season in a row

Last year's fixture was famous for Anthony Gordon's controversial winner which had Arsenal fans floating home on a river of tears, but they can have no complaints about Alexander Isak's winner today.

Anthony Gordon whipped in a perfect cross from the right for Isak to rise like a salmon between two Arsenal defenders and power his header home.

Alan Shearer certainly enjoyed Alexander Isak's winner over Arsenal

Former Newcastle striker Alan Shearer was in the Premier League productions studio alongside his mate, and Arsenal legend, Ian Wright and the green room cameras picked up Shearer's reaction to the goal.

"What a cross! That was a cross from the 90's."

That's going up there in the Alan Shearer hall of fame quotes alongside "Pressure's for tyres". We love seeing Al getting over excited.

Arsenal gave their fans nothing positive to shout about

The usually vocal Ian Wright was very quiet sitting next to Shearer, it has to be said.

And in fairness, we imagine he was pretty quiet all game as Arsenal gave their fans nothing to shout about. Well, nothing positive anyway.

We haven't looked, but we imagine the meltdown on ATV is something else.
