Arsenal     3-0    Newcastle

Newcastle put in a lacklustre performance at Highbury as Arsenal forgot their Champions League exit and stormed to an FA Cup semi-final date with Boro.
Robert Pires, who later went off with a knee injury, put the Gunners ahead after just two minutes firing past Shay Given. And the Frenchman turned provider on nine when he squared the ball for Dennis Bergkamp to finish.
Sol Campbell made it three on 50 when he headed home Bergkamp's free-kick.
Disappointed Newcastle boss Bobby Robson admitted there was no way back for his side after they went two goals down in the first 10 minutes.
"Some of our fans woke up at 4am to get here this morning, our players woke up at 12.15, quarter-of-an-hour too late," Robson said.
"It was a wretched start, but Arsenal were just the better team, and they had a genius in Dennis Bergkamp - we didn't have a genius in our side."
Man-of-the-match Bergkamp says the Gunners had to come out of the blocks quickly to wipe away the memory of the midweek defeat in Juventus.
"There's enough experience here to know how to respond. We knew we couldn't wait for the game to come to us," said the flying Dutchman.
"We're now looking forward to the semi against Middlesbrough. The FA Cup is something I enjoy as no other country has a competition like this."
