New angle of Newcastle goal emerges and Arsenal fans are furious

A new angle has emerged in the lead-up to Newcastle's goal has emerged and Arsenal fans are furious.

The Magpies picked up all three points at St James' Park after a feisty encounter with the Gunners, winning 1-0.

Tensions reached boiling point in the first half, with many fans believing Bruno Guimaraes should have been sent off for elbowing Jorginho in the face.

However, VAR weren't interested in taking a look, angering Arsenal fans at half-time.

VAR then took centre stage once more around the hour mark, after Anthony Gordon gave the Magpies the lead.

Jacob Murphy's snap-shot looked to be heading out for a goal-kick, but Joe Willock kept the move alive on the touchline, before digging out a cross into Joelinton.

Under pressure from Gabriel Magalhaes, the ball bobbled into the path of Gordon, who smashed it home from close range to send St James' Park into ecstasy.

A lengthy VAR check then ensued, as officials initially checked if the ball stayed in, before checking if there was a foul on Gabriel and an offside against Gordon.

After a comically long wait, referee Stuart Atwell pointed to the centre circle to confirm the goal.

However, a new angle has since emerged which appears to show the ball was out of play before Willock got there.
