Premier League result: Leaders Arsenal held to goalless draw by third-placed Newcastle United in top-of-the-table clash at Emirates Stadium

Arsenal 0-0 Newcastle United.

Saka volleys over from a half-cleared corner and that is that.

The Gunners players race at the referee after Xhaka's cross was blocked by part of an arm. VAR isn't interested but the home team are fuming.

To be fair, it would have been very harsh.

Arteta can't believe it. He expected much more.

Nketiah bursts free on the left side of the box but sees his low shot brilliantly blocked by Pope.

Saint-Maximin on.

Martinelli and Odegaard combine down the left to tee up Xhaka, but the Swiss can't sort his feet out to make contact with a shot just eight yards from goal.

Burn loops a header right across the six-yard box that evades his teammates in the middle.

It's a nervy moment for Arsenal but replays suggest the Newcastle defender was offside from the right-wing cross, so it wouldn't have counted if it had resulted in a goal.

Second-placed Manchester City could cut Arsenal’s eight-point lead to five if they win at Chelsea on Thursday night. Newcastle would remain third and would be nine points behind the Gunners having played a game more.

Martinelli meets a right-wing corner at the near post but sees his header flash just wide of the back stick.

Can the leaders find a winner late on here?

Tomiyasu on.

Wood on.

Murphy on.

Nketiah looks to wriggle through from the left but the ball is eventually shepherded back to Pope.

The Gunners man charges past Burn and then produces a turn that sees the Newcastle defender slide past him after being completely roasted.

Saka tries to drive in across that right byline but a loose touch allows Joelinton to make a crucial challenge.
