Newcastle United's hard week of training paid off on match day as Wolves were beaten 2-1 at St James' Park.
Howe had made reference to getting it right in both boxes ever since the Carabao Cup final defeat at Wembley and it felt like the Magpies at least got it spot on at one end in the attacking third. For in both halves, they rediscovered their clinical touch where and when it mattered thanks to Alexander Isak and Miguel Almiron.
Finishing drills have been sharpened up at Benton and video clips about offensive play in the box have been mulled over by players and coaching staff in the last few days. Newcastle created good chances at Man City but failed to finish.
