The match between Arsenal and Newcastle on November 4th, was a very extreme game. Lots of calls and many debates here on this goal. Check the link of Anthony Gordon’s goal with probable shove on Gabriel, Arsenal's defender, and offside with a couple players. Looking at the clip again at 6:23 it hits off of Joelington’s hip when Gordon spiraled it towards him, now Anthony stepping in, hitting a banger straight into the goal. Now looking at the replays, there is surely a lot happening in these clips with a possible offside. Concluding this goal the refs decided that this goal was valid even with that shove from Joelingston and the defender on Arsenal's team, Gabriel. There was a possible ball out of play there but having in mind the whole ball from top to bottom has to be out of the boundary to count out.


Lots of tension in this game and interesting calls. Definitely one of those games!
