The race for Europe is still as indecisive in the Premier League. Still in the fight with Aston Villa, Chelsea and Nottingham Forest for a place in the Champions League, the Magpies made one of the good shots of the weekend by winning in Leicester. Very quickly, Murphy allowed Nufc to open the scoring (1-0, 2nd), before offering the double a few minutes later (2-0, 11th).

Before the break, Barnes already weighed down the scoring (3-0, 34th) and allowed the Toons to have a good lead to quietly win at the end of the second period. Without trembling, Newcastle returns to Manchester City and returns equal to Chelsea, 4th. The Magpies will then have to face Manchester United during the 32nd day. On the other hand, relegation is very close to Leicester, which remains 19th and 15 points from the Wolves, 17th.
