IKTS Week 11: At Newcastle.

An easy win for Arsenal despite a long wait for the first goal by Nketiah, served by Rice, and it was one-nil at halftime. The second half started with a blast in the roof of the net for Nketiah on a Saka corner, then a simple pass from ESR to Nketiah for a wondergoal from distance for the Arsenal number 14, who completed his first ever Premier League hattrick. Further goals by Fabio Vieira for a penalty conversion that he earned upon being tripped in the surface, and by Tomiyasu from a point blank shot against an out of sorts visitors' defense, completed this 5-0 victory.
