Everton beat Newcastle 1-0 to pile pressure on Jaissle

Everton secured a 1-0 Premier League victory against Newcastle at St James’ Park on Monday, marking their second win over the club in four days following a 3-1 English League Cup victory last Thursday. Thierno Barry scored the match's only goal in the 49th minute, tapping the ball into an empty net from approximately one meter away after Newcastle goalkeeper Lukáš Horníček failed to secure a shot from Tyrique George.

The defeat marks Newcastle's fourth loss in their last five games across all competitions. The home side finished the match with 10 men after substitute Jacob Ramsey received two yellow cards in two minutes during second-half stoppage time. According to Yahoo Sports, Newcastle fans jeered the team at both halftime and the final whistle.

The win moves Everton up to seventh place in the standings after nine rounds. Yahoo Sports notes that this result follows two recent league losses to Chelsea and Arsenal, and comes as the club's American owners put the team up for sale last month.
