Everton defeated Newcastle by 3 goals at the Goodison Park today
Everton defeated Newcastle today at the Goodison Park to move up from the danger zone on the league table. Newcastle’s performance this season is promising, but Everton managed to stop them from winning today’s match after defeating United last weekend.
This season has been rough for Everton, and they stayed in the danger zone for weeks until defeating Newcastle United today. It is a big win for The Toffees since Newcastle had the higher odds of winning today to put them ahead of Man United.
The surprise in The Toffees and Magpie’s game was that neither side scored a goal in the first 78 minutes. It wasn’t until the 79th minute when Dwight McNeil scored the first goal for The Toffees to take the lead for the first time in the game.
In the 86th minute, McNeil assisted Abdoulaye Doucouré in extending The Toffees’ lead by two. The Magpies, hoping to concede two goals, were shocked by Nathan Patterson’s assist, which allowed Beto to score The Toffees’ third goal.
Everton possessed 38%, had 21 shots with 6 on target, 313 passes with 74% accuracy, 18 fouls, 3 yellow cards, and 5 corners. Newcastle had 62% possession, 13 shots with 3 on target, 536 passes with 83% accuracy, 8 fouls, 2 offsides and 2 corners.
In the last ten games between The Toffees and the Magpies, The Toffees won three, the Magpies won six, and one resulted in a draw, indicating Newcastle’s merits over Everton. The Magpies last defeated The Toffees in a PL match on 27 April 2023.
