Jollington was involved in a conflict with Arsenal coach Miguel Morina after Newcastle’s late defeat at St. James Park in the Premier League on Sunday
Newcastle star Jollington was found to be in a fierce interaction with members of Mikel Arteta’s coaching staff just minutes after Arsenal snatched a dramatic 2-1 victory. Gabriel Magalges’ 96th minute goal completed a late comeback from the Gunners, who were late in the first half after a header from Nick Urtemade.
Mikel Merino substitute leveled things up in a normal time of six minutes before Gabriel grabbed all three points into stop time for Arsenal. After a final whistle, Jollington, who escaped before the awayside winner, made a beeline for gunners coach Miguel Molina.
The Brazilian midfielder confronts Molina and pushes him before Arteta stepped in to ease the situation. Newcastle coach Simon Weatherstone took Jollington away.

Arteta tried to smooth things out by offering to shake hands with the furious 29-year-old girlfriend. Jollington looked so excited when he left the Gunners boss.
Atteta had no such complaints. That team is currently two points behind title rival Liverpool.
“The belief that we are, the team’s belief, and we can play different types of games, and teams can continue to offer it in a compelling way to win,” the Arsenal manager welcomed.
“And today, it’s one of the most difficult grounds. Again, I’d like to praise Newcastle, how they play, the competition, how difficult it is to play in this place. But the team has really taken the game to another level.

When Arsenal felt that Liverpool was capitalized after the defeat of Crystal Palace on Saturday, Arteta replied:
“And do it at a stadium that has a very recent and difficult past for us. I think it shows how much the team wants it.”
Meanwhile, Eddie Howe lamented Newcastle’s defeat and spoke to the Chronicle live.
“What I’m looking for is effort, commitment, desire, organization. There’s so much to performance, there’s effort there, but there was a lack of quality.
