Arsenal capitalised fully on Liverpool's Saturday defeat by staging an electrifying, late-game turnaround to beat Newcastle 2-1.

Trailing 0-1 since the 34th minute, Arsenal pulled level with Mikel Merino's 84th-minute header, setting the stage for defender Gabriel Magalhaes to clinch the victory with a towering 96th-minute winner from a corner.

The dramatic late-show moves Mikel Arteta's team into second place, closing the gap to just two points behind the defending champions.
