FULL TIME! Arsenal 1-0 Newcastle

The Gunners have secured second place for the season with a win over Newcastle. Declan Rice's second half goal was the difference but in truth the game was a bit of a non-event.

There's going to be five additional minutes.

Arsenal are calling for a red card as Krafth brings down Martinelli but the referee only produces a yellow.

That was a stunning finish from the England international. A first time effort from 20 yards out, just out of Pope's reach. How will Newcastle react now?

And after that brief interlude we're back underway at the Emirates.
