Newcastle United brutally troll Piers Morgan after Arsenal victory - look how he responds
Jamie Reuben poked fun at Piers Morgan immediately after Newcastle United put Arsenal to the sword at St James’ Park.
Eddie Howe’s men repeated last year’s heroics by beating the Gunners 1-0 - with Anthony Gordon producing the magic again. Unlike last year, when the wideman scored a controversial winner, he turned provider with arguably the cross of the season to set up Alexander Isak.
The Swede headed home from inside the area and Newcastle dug deep to grind out a much-needed three points. Victory over Arsenal capitalised on the midweek triumph over Chelsea but was Newcastle’s first Premier League win in five outings.
Howe and Co will be hoping to use the back-to-back scalps as a springboard to kick-start their campaign. The Toon boss hailed “95 minutes of concentration” once United’s win was confirmed.
"It was 95 minutes of concentration and consistency in our attitude," Howe said post-match. "We managed and controlled some very good players pretty well today.
"It's three points but it means so much because we hadn't won for a while in the Premier League. I'm sure it will do us the world of good."
As for Arsenal, their title charge appeared in tatters until Manchester City’s shock defeat at Bournemouth. This infuriated lifelong Gooner and TV host Morgan - who labelled the loss to Newcastle as a “disaster”.
Reuben, a board member on Tyneside since the Saudi-backed takeover, sarcastically apologised for the Magpies claiming all three points. Morgan conceded that “your boys” - meaning Newcastle - deserved to win the game.
"That’s more like it (regarding the result)," Reuben added. So proud of that performance, thank you for the amazing support today."
