Bruno Guimaraes haunts Ralph Hasenhuttl as top summer target wows Newcastle owners - 5 things

Newcastle United have moved 10 points clear of the relegation zone following a spirited 2-1 win against Southampton at St Mary's on Thursday night.

Stuart Armstrong nodded the hosts in front in the 25th minute after Kyle Walker-Peters' cross was flicked across goal by Mohamed Elyounoussi. However, Newcastle responded just seven minutes later when Chris Wood scored his first goal for the club after getting his head on the end of Jonjo Shelvey's cross.

Bruno Guimaraes then put Newcastle in front with a spectacular back-heeled volley in the 52nd minute as the Brazil international announced himself in style on his full debut. Newcastle survived a late Southampton onslaught to extend their unbeaten run in the Premier League to nine games.
