JAKARTA - Arsenal continue to stick to Manchester City in the race for the English Premier League title. While traveling to St James Park, Newcastle United headquarters, the Gunners won three points after winning 2-0, Sunday, May 7.

Arsenal opened the scoring through Martin Odegaard's goal early in the first half before Fabian Schar's own goal won the London club.

Arsenal are still in second place with 81 points. They are only one point behind Manchester City who are at the top of the standings.

"We are here, now we want to keep digging. The prizes are there, not too far away," said Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, after the match.

"The only thing we can do is remain adamant and not turn away and lose focus on other things, be determined every day. Let's go ahead and see what happens," he said again, as quoted by Live Score.

When asked if their appearance had proven that they would fight until the end, Arteta did not deny it. He said Arsenal had done it today.

"Now we have to prove that we were able to do it against Brighton. We've been doing it for eight and a half months and we have to keep doing it," said Arteta.

"We were there and now it feels very different from 10 days ago and now we have to make sure the momentum is there," continued the Spanish man.
