Photograph: Tony O'Brien/Action Images</div> </div> <div id="article-body-blocks"> <p>Arsène Wenger had articulated what amounted to a rallying cry. "We want to show how far we have come," the <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20120312225713/http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/arsenal" title="More from guardian.co.uk on Arsenal">Arsenal</a> manager said. Four successive <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20120312225713/http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/premierleague" title="More from guardian.co.uk on Premier League">Premier League</a> victories, all of them coming from behind, had transformed the club's fortunes and the fifth, when it came at the very end, confirmed that the north London club are ready to finish the season with a bang.</p><p>Before the derby against Tottenham Hotspur a little over two weeks ago, Arsenal had trailed their third-placed rivals by 10 points. The plan here was to reel in the deficit to a mere one and they mustered the knockout blow deep into injury time. Theo Walcott had enjoyed a fine evening and his cross caused havoc inside the Newcastle area. Thomas Vermaelen, stealing up from the back, banged in the winner to spark frenzied scenes at the Emirates.</p><p>Arsenal had scored seemingly at will in recent home games, amassing 18 in the previous four and, when Robin van Persie cancelled out Hatem Ben Arfa's goal, the scene was set for them to press their credentials for Champions League qualification. A combination of poor finishing and Newcastle's defensive grit denied them until last minute of added time but it only made the winner taste all the sweeter for the home supporters.</p><p>The second half had amounted to a siege; apart from the odd pass back Wojciech Szczesny did not touch the ball while the closing stages featured enough goalmouth incident for Arsenal to have turned several games before Vermaelen gave Arsenal their deserts.</p><p>Newcastle have been soft down south this season, shipping goals in defeat at Tottenham Hotspur, Fulham and Norwich City. They also went out of the FA Cup at Brighton & Hove Albion. The club's hierarchy did not have this in mind and Alan Pardew's side looked slightly more solid here, starting with Papiss Cissé among the substitutes and Demba Ba as the lone front man, albeit one supported by a trio of mercurial talents.</p><p>Pardew had stressed that victory was important to keep Newcastle's Champions League hopes alive which, on at least one level, summed up the progress that he has overseen. The upwardly mobile mood, though, was not restricted to those in black and white. Van Persie had made Arsenal's revised target plain in his programme notes. "It has to be third place in the Premier League," he wrote.</p><p>Both teams were crammed with creative talent and it was easy to revel in the zip of Walcott or the touch of Ben Arfa. Even Bacary Sagna joined in, with a nutmeg on Davide Santon. Wenger had described Ben Arfa as one of France's "most gifted" players and there had seemed a wariness at the outset within the home team when the Newcastle winger picked up possession.</p><p>There was certainly a looseness about Arsenal when Ben Arfa scored the opening goal, in what was a helter skelter opening period, high on high-speed passing interchanges. Vermaelen gave the ball away to Chiek Tioté and, in a flash, Ba and Gabriel Obertan had worked it right to Ben Arfa. He jinked inside Kieran Gibbs, who was a long way from being tight and exposed Szczesny at his near post with a fierce shot. Newcastle's players strutted en masse in celebration.</p><p>Arsenal comebacks are de rigueur at present and they were level inside a minute. The approach work was slick, Tomas Rosicky releasing Walcott and his cross found Van Persie, whose touch and cuteness embarrassed Mike Williamson. The Dutchman duly dispatched his 33rd goal of the season beyond his compatriot Tim Krul.</p><p>Van Persie was electric and, yet again, a joy to watch, although he did not quite score when he wanted in the first half. His sights were awry in the early running, after Walcott had beaten Fabricio Coloccini and whipped over an inviting centre. Williamson was panicked by Van Persie and the striker had further sightings of goal, even if he finished the half in a grump at Krul over perceived time-wasting. Arsenal were also unhappy that Tioté and Ba had escaped censure after leaving their feet in on Alex Song and Laurent Koscielny.</p><p>The travelling supporters were keen to remember a comeback of their own, from 4-0 down to 4-4 against Arsenal last season, and there was the sense that here were two teams perfectly capable of serving up drama. Arsenal had made such inroads up the Newcastle left that Pardew replaced Santon at the interval, choosing to ask James Perch to do a job out of position at left-back.</p><p>Wenger's team were the more adventurous in the first half and they remained on the front foot in the second, making Newcastle work, which they were not afraid to do. Tioté epitomised the visitors' ethic. He might clatter on the very edge of the game's margins and he was booked for clipping Rosicky but his bite was essential.</p><p>The chances continued to come for Arsenal. Rosicky drew a save from Krul with a sharp header while Van Persie should have done better from Mikel Arteta's low ball. The red waves crashed forward. Rosicky mis-kicked when gloriously placed; the substitute Gervinho scuffed as the goal gaped; Vermaelen's header was cleared by Danny Simpson and the Belgium defender had another header tipped over by Krul before Walcott went close. Then, when the die seemed cast on a draw, Vermaelen forced the result.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div id="related"> <ul id="article-toolbox-side" class="b4 left"> <li class="printable"><a

In the first half we put them under pressure and despite Obertan being woeful in possession he was still making a good nuisance of himself. In the second half it was quite visible from the 50th minute onwards that the players were instructed to play for the draw and keep possession. The only way to beat Arsenal is to put them under pressure but instead the tactic was to soak up pressure and despite the obvious oncoming goal as Arsenal missed three sitters Pardew missed all the warning signs.Once again Colo was brilliant breaking up play and firing pinsharp passes and another mention for simpson who cleared off the line for the umpteenth time. That second half was a car crash in slow mention, Arsenal were gifted that victory.

<div class="comment-body"> <p>Relatively even game in the first half. The second half I don't think Newcastle created one goal scoring chance nor looked creating anything. It was only a matter of time that one of the many chances that Arsenal created would go in, I mean Krul made a number of great saves and there was Simpsons off the line clearance, as well the occasional Arsenal scuffed chance. But all in all, if you don't create anything on offense you'll get burnt eventually. Ben Arfa is great for 5 minutes then disappears for the rest of the game, I don't think he had a significant touch of the ball at all the second half, I remember him getting the ball in like the 85th minute and the announcers being surprised he was still out there.</p> </div> </li> <li class="comment-tools"> <ul> <li class="recomended"> <a title="Recommend this comment" class="recommend"
