Newcastle 3-1 Everton: Saint-Maximin steals the show

Published

on

Newcastle beat Everton 3-1 securing back-to-back wins for the first time since the end of last season, the result takes Newcastle out of the relegation zone.

Allan Saint-Maximin earned the nights ‘man of the match’ award, earning praise from both managers. Howe described Saint-Maximin as ‘magic’, Lampard praised the Frenchman as ‘unplayable’.

The home side went a goal down in the 36th minute as Newcastle struggled to defend a set piece and the ball bounced of the Captain, Jamal Lascelles and went into the back of the net to give the toffee’s an early lead. The lead didn’t last long however as Lascelles headed against the crossbar from a Kieran Trippier, luckily the ball bounced off Everton’s Mason Holgate to bring the game back to a draw.

Saint-Maximin set up Ryan Fraser for Newcastle’s second goal as the Magpies beat Everton 3-1 to move out of the relegation zone and put pressure on the Toffees by moving within a point of them.

Newcastle’s third came from a Kieran Trippier free-kick from 25 yards to secure the three points.

The Magpies were able to put in a solid team performance to defeat a lacklustre Everton side to secure the three points on Tyneside however, it was Saint-Maxim taking all the plaudits.

The forward topped the charts for dribbles (13), ten of which were successful and won 14 of his 22 duels. He helped create three chances, had two shots on target and ten touches in the opposition box.

Everton could not deal with the French winger, causing their defence all sorts of issues, even linking up with new boy, Bruno Guimarães, to nearly make it four.
After the game, Howe said: “He’s such a special player. We’ve seen in the last few weeks that he’s got better and better since I’ve been here. I’m delighted with his performance today, he’s a real threat and he’s someone I’d hate to play against personally because you just can’t predict what he’s going to do.
“But he’s a match winner, and we’re going to need him at this level for the rest of the season.”

Everton boss Frank Lampard added: “Saint-Maximin on a night like this evening is pretty unplayable at any level of football.”

This was the first time Newcastle had won back-to-back games since the end of last season and it is something Howe hopes can catapult Newcastle up the league table.

“Consecutive wins in the Premier League are rare – they can change your status and elevate the club, but we have to stay calm and focus on the next game.

“There is a good feeling in the dressing room, confidence levels are building. Our navigating of the game in tight situations has improved. I hope to see a big psychological effect from this win.”

Newcastle are next in action this Sunday, as they host Steven Gerrards, Aston Villa, 14:00 kick off.
