Pasukan muda Arsenal kembali menunjukkan kelasnya dengan melewati hadangan Newcastle United melalui heading maut Niklas Bendtner yang menyambut umpan crossing dari Armand Traore yang kemudian disusul 6 menit sesudahnya tendangan keras Denilson dari jarak sekitar 20 yard menyudahi perlawanan Newcastle di Emirates Stadium.
Dalam pertandingan ini Eboue yang baru saja sembuh dari cedera juga bermain sangat bagus untuk menghidupkan serangan dari sisi kanan Arsenal.
Senderos juga bermain gemilang menyelamatkan gawang Arsenal dari Obafemi Martins yang sudah melewati Fabianski.
Arsene Wenger yang memberikan kepercayaan kepada para pemain mudanya untuk turun diajang Carling Cup tersebut memberikan pernyataan gembiranya sebagai berikut :
"It was a good game at good pace, slowly we took over and in the second half it was all us," said Wenger. "We were good and intelligent, and I like that.
"The game was of the same level we played recently with the players who did not feature tonight, and with a style of play with a continuity.
"We have wave after wave of generation of young players.
"We work with them and when they have come in, they show top quality.
"We have a small group of good quality, and very young.
"For me, all of them can play on a regular basis in the first team."
Untuk permainan Niklas Bendtner, Arsene Wenger juga memberikan pujian :"His presence in the game was great," said the Arsenal boss. "The best way for him to put me under pressure was to play like he played tonight.
"We have four strikers, not 20, so in a season you need that."
