Comments:

League position: 18th Newcastle United had now won none of their last nine Premier League home games against Arsenal (drawn four and lost four). Fabricio Coloccini was booked in the second minute of added time in the second half.

Comments:

League position: 5th Arsenal's Premier League leading scorer so far in 2015-16 was now 'own goal'. Only one of their three league goals had been scored by their own player (Olivier Giroud at Crystal Palace). The Premier League’s Goal Accreditation Panel ruled on the following: - Arsenal’s goal against Newcastle United on Saturday 29th August 2015 has been confirmed as an own goal (Fabricio Coloccini). (Circular 4 – 3rd September 2015)
