Everton beat Newcastle to pile pressure on Jaissle

NEWCASTLE: Everton increased the pressure on under-fire Newcastle boss Matthias Jaissle as Thierno Barry sealed a 1-0 win at St James’ Park on Monday.

Everton beat Newcastle to pile pressure on Jaissle

Newcastle's under-pressure manager Matthias Jaissle faced increased scrutiny as Everton secured a 1-0 victory at St James' Park on Monday. Thierno Barry scored the winning goal in the second half, lifting Everton into seventh place in the Premier League and leaving Newcastle in 13th. Midfielder Jacob Ramsey was sent off in the final seconds for a reckless foul on Harrison Armstrong, marking yet another defeat for the Saudi-funded Newcastle, who have lost four of their past five matches.

Jaissle's coaching struggles came to light as his team received boos from the crowd at halftime and again post-match. With Everton's win, they avoided a two-game losing streak, having previously defeated Newcastle in the League Cup on Thursday. The match was marred by poor performances and a frustrating night for Newcastle supporters, who left early due to the team's dismal form.
