Newcastle got the better of Brentford this Saturday in the 5th round of the Premier League.

After three defeats in a row, in front of Manchester City, Liverpool and Brighton, the Magpies had the last word thanks to a penalty converted by Wilson (1-0, 64e).

A minimalist victory which allows Newcastle to reassure itself a little before the Champions League and a first meeting scheduled against AC Milan, in the group which will also see PSG host Dortmund.
