Arsenal have set a new record for the most corner goals in a single Premier League season, following Eberechi Eze\u2019s effort against Newcastle United on Saturday.\"EberechiPhoto by Mark Thompson\/Getty Images<\/p>\n

The Arsenal fans at the Emirates Stadium were clearly a little unhappy when the team opted to play three short corners in the opening minutes of Saturday\u2019s Premier League clash with Newcastle United.<\/p>\n

The team have successfully converted plenty of crosses into the area from corners, so perhaps the short corners felt like wasted opportunities to the fans.<\/p>\n

Yet on the third of three, Noni Madueke<\/a> found Kai Havertz<\/a> inside the penalty area, and the German international laid it off for Eberechi Eze<\/a> to fire home for 1-0.<\/p>\n

The short-corner routine ended up being the winning goal in a tight contest, just like when Gabriel Magalhaes<\/a> headed home in the reverse fixture.<\/p>\n

But more than just the vital three points, the corner goal was also a record-breaker<\/a>, as Arsenal\u2019s 17th of the Premier League season.<\/p>\n

No team has ever scored more than 16 in one season, with the previous joint-holders of the record being Oldham Athletic (1992\/93), West Bromwich Albion (2016\/17), and Arsenal themselves (2023\/24). So this Arsenal team of 2025\/26 have already set a new all-time record, with four games to play.<\/p>\n

OptaJoe<\/a> also reports that Arsenal hold the record for the most goals from corners to go 1-0 up, having achieved the feat 10 times this season. The corner goals haven\u2019t just put gloss on a win, they\u2019ve often inspired the result.<\/p>\n

Corners have been one of Arsenal\u2019s big strengths this season, and they may yet rely on a few more goals from set-pieces if they want to win trophies in the final month or so of the campaign.<\/p>\n
