Newcastle players may be about to get what they need and Everton's telling four-word admission

The officials let Newcastle United down at Stamford Bridge last week but not even VAR could rescue the Magpies' against Everton after Alex Iwobi struck a late winner in the Toffees' 1-0 victory at Goodison Park.

Newcastle were given a gift in the 83rd minute after Allan was controversially sent off for a challenge on Allan Saint-Maximin and even Frank Lampard, himself, admitted that he was thinking 'I'll take a draw' at that point, Yet going down to 10 men ended up galvanising Everton whereas Newcastle failed to take advantage.

Whatever about going in search of a winner, Newcastle simply could not lose the game from that position. However, Newcastle did not have control of the match, even with an extra man on the field, and Everton made the visitors pay after a whopping 14 minutes of stoppage time were added on after a protestor held up the game earlier that night.
