Forget the Swifties – the Gyokies are something else with their trademark mask pose.It is hard to think of an Arsenal signing in recent times that has garnered this much attention and fanfare, not to mention one who has been unveiled and paraded thousands of miles away from home before an important pre-season game.Gyokeres – known for his cool and calculated killer instinct, unflappable in the big moments – could not help but crack an awkward smile as he walked around the pitch and applauded the crazed Singapore locals before posing for photos and throwing t-shirts into the stands.ReutersAnthony Elanga put Newcastle in the lead[/caption]GettyIt was his first goal in Newcastle colours[/caption]You could not blame him for just wanting a bit of downtime away from the spotlight having flown into Singapore on Saturday after rushing through his medical in North London.But if he hadn’t figured out already he is Arsenal’s new hope with the weight of their season on his mighty shoulders, he has now.GettyMikel Merino levelled for Arsenal[/caption]GettyBukayo Saka shoots past Alex Murphy[/caption]When the main event was over, a game of football kicked off. Arteta went strong, just like he had done in their 1-0 win against AC Milan on Wednesday.Havertz led the line and Ethan Nwaneri got another chance to impress in midfield in place of Odegaard while Calafiori partnered William Saliba in defence again with new boy Cristhian Mosquera not yet ready to make the squad.It was a poor start for the Gunners with Toon’s £55m signing Elanga scuffing a sixth-minute effort in off the post from a cut-back cross that had Saliba and Calafiori marking the same man.And with their new No.14 sat watching in the stands, Arsenal were wasteful with their own chances. Havertz mistimed a free header in the box and Calafiori’s low delivery was begging to be tucked away but failed to find a willing runner.Leandro Trossard came close to being subbed off, signalled to do so by Arteta after going down twice in as many minutes, yet managed to carry on.This had the feel of a spicy Prem game, especially between two sides who have developed a real hate-hate relationship over the years.GettySaka and Ethan Nwaneri celebrate an own-goal scored by Alex Murphy[/caption]GettyJacob Murphy made it 2-2[/caption]Myles Lewis-Skelly was wrestled to the floor by Jamaal Lascelles at a corner and Bukayo Saka went down clutching his face after a collision with Sandro Tonali, one that left Arteta raging down the touchline with play allowed to continue.But he was not angry for very long as Arsenal were in front with two quickfire goals, the first in the 33rd minute as Merino slotted into the bottom corner, teed up by Havertz.And the German was alert again to a quickly-taken free-kick that put him away down the left – his whipped ball across goal thumped into his own net by Murphy in the 35th minute.On his first start for the club, Martin Zubimendi was brilliant, dictating the play, and showing he could also do the ugly work too, picking up a yellow card just before the break for a cynical counter-stopping foul on Anthony Gordon.Howe made nine changes for the second half while Arteta made just the one – bringing on skipper Odegaard for Nwaneri, but was forced into another as Calafiori limped off with a worrying left leg issue given his injury woes last season, replaced by Jakub Kiwior.Saka came close with an acrobatic effort before Jacob Murphy’s deflected long-range thump wriggled its way past David Raya.Arteta switched things up after that with Raya off for Kepa Arrizabalaga while Havertz and Saka were brought off for Max Dowman and Gabriel Martinelli.Teenager Dowman has seriously impressed during his cameos so far, brilliantly cutting in from the right wing here and forcing Nick Pope and then the subbed-on John Ruddy into diving saves.And then, in the 82nd minute, a sublime spin and footwork off the flank saw him glide into the box and win the penalty that Odegaard duly converted.GettyMartin Odegaard won the game[/caption]GettyOdegaard turned the game around[/caption]
