Arsenal’s superiority was evident in their play, leading to a beautifully crafted goal for Kai Havertz.
Despite a brief resurgence from Newcastle early in the second half, Arsenal continued to dictate the game.
Bukayo Saka added a third, while Jakub Kiwior’s header from a set-piece further extended Arsenal’s lead, with visiting goalkeeper Loris Karius unable to prevent the goals.
