Newcastle made it four wins on the spin in all competitions as they won 3-0 against Aston Villa, who had Jhon Duran sent off in the first half.

Anthony Gordon took just 90 seconds to send Newcastle on their way with a beautiful curling strike. Villa’s task was already tough enough after that but was made even more difficult by Duran’s dismissal after a clash with Fabian Schar.

Newcastle played with great intelligence and coolness in the second half with the extra man and goals from Isak, his seventh in five games, and Joelinton rubberstamped an easy victory.
