Newcastle United fell to consecutive defeats last night as Everton came out triumphant in a dramatic match at Goodison Park. After a bright start from the home side, the Magpies took a firm control of the game in the first half but they lost their momentum in the second half, with a long stoppage due to a protestor tying himself to a goalpost causing Newcastle to lose their rhythm.
There were then two dramatic moments as Everton's Allan was given a straight red card after a VAR check for a cynical foul to halt an Allan Saint-Maximin break. From that moment, it seemed as if Newcastle were heavy favourites and Everton would be clinging on for a point but during the 14 minutes of added time, Everton struck.
Allan Saint-Maximin gave the ball away on the halfway line and the Magpies were open. Within two passes, Everton were at the edge of the penalty area and Dominic Calvert-Lewin slipped the ball into the path of the arriving Iwobi to finish past Martin Dubravka and deliver the three points Goodison Park craved.
