NEWCASTLE TREAT BRITHDAY BOY EDDIE HOWE TO MAIDEN PL AWAY WIN OF 2025-26
Malick Thiaw scored twice as Newcastle secured their first Premier League away win of the campaign, courtesy of an emphatic 4-1 victory at Everton.
The visitors added a second when Miley’s bouncing shot somehow squirmed past Jordan Pickford on 25 minutes before Nick Woltemade grabbed his seventh goal for the club with a delightful lob on the stroke of half time.
Everton substitute Carlos Alcaraz crashed a scorching shot against the crossbar as the hosts looked for a way back into it, but Newcastle added a fourth just shy of the hour when Thiaw headed in his second of the night.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall did net a consolation 21 minutes from time, but it was only a minor blot on the away side’s copybook as they marked boss Eddie Howe’s 48th birthday in style.
The result sees Newcastle climb to 11th spot, level on 18 points with Everton but ahead of the 14th-placed Toffees on goal difference.
Next up, Newcastle host Tottenham on Tuesday night. Everton are at Bournemouth.
