Arsenal edged an entertaining preseason friendly against Newcastle United on Sunday, with a late Martin Ødegaard penalty ensuring the Gunners continued their winning start to the summer.

Arsenal beat Newcastle 3-2 in Singapore on Sunday as Mikel Arteta's kept their winning run going in preseason. Anthony Elanga put Newcastle ahead early on as the new signing made a great first impression on his first start, but then Arsenal equalized through Mikel Merino and an own goal from Jacob Murphy moments later made it 2-1.

However, it was Arsenal's 15-year-old academy products, midfielder Max Downman and centre-back Marli Salmon, who also impressed with their cameos and were the main subject of Arteta's post-match press conference, with the mood surrounding the club fairly postive.
