There was a top match this Sunday on Sunday on St James' Park during the duel between Newcastle and Nottingham Forest. Faced with the surprise of this first half of the season, these are ultimately the Magpies who managed to win (4-3). And the scenario was quite surprising.
Because it was first the visitors who opened the brand very early in the game, thanks to Callum Hudson-Oimoi (0-1, 6th). But suddenly, Newcastle woke up and chained the goals. Lewis Miley first for equalization (1-1, 23rd), then Jacob Murphy to give his own (2-1, 25th). In stride, man in the form of Toons went there with his double. Alexander Isak marked on penalty (3-1, 33rd) before reoffending a minute later (4-1, 34th).
Good accounting operation for Magpies
Folded match? No way. Because despite this three-way mattress in advance, the locals will be scared by seeing their opponents reduce the gap by Nikola Milenkovic (4-2, 63rd) for a first time. And a second after regulation time with the pawn of Ryan Yates (4-3, 90th). A little too late for Nottingham who will have hoped until the last moment.
This positive result allows Newcastle to carry out a good operation in the ranking. Taking advantage of the combined defeats of Chelsea and Bournemouth, he climbs to fifth rank of the Premier League, now three points of his victim of the day which is third and remains on two defeats.
