Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale admitted relief after victory at Newcastle.
The Gunners won 2-0 in an exciting end-to-end contest on Sunday.
Immense pride and bit of relief as well, especially with the talk of what happened last year, to come here and put on a performance," Ramsdale told Sky Sports. We wanted to impose ourselves onto the game and the crowd.
It (last year's game) wasn't mentioned until the meeting just before we left the hotel. The manager showed us a clip from the documentary last year, showed all of our faces, staff included, showing how hurt we were feeling. We had that burning desire as soon as we left the hotel that it wasn't going to be the same today.
It may have given us extra motivation. When we needed to dig deep, it really helped us."
