Everton beat Newcastle to pile pressure on Jaissle
Thierno Barry's goal sealed a 1-0 win at St James' Park, lifting Everton to seventh in the Premier League and leaving Newcastle languishing in 13th.
Everton secured a 1-0 victory over Newcastle at St James' Park, intensifying the pressure on manager Matthias Jaissle. Thierno Barry scored the winning goal in the second half, propelling Everton into seventh place in the Premier League. Newcastle, now languishing in 13th position, saw midfielder Jacob Ramsey receive a red card in the final minutes of the match for a rough tackle on Harrison Armstrong.
The German coach, who took charge after Eddie Howe's sudden departure, faced further criticism as both sets of players were booed off at half-time and after the final whistle. Newcastle's poor form continued, with Jaissle needing a win against Fulham on Saturday to alleviate mounting scrutiny. Newcastle has lost 22 of their last 33 Premier League matches on a Monday, and fans departed early due to a rainy night and the team's poor performance.
Barry's eighth goal this season, including four in his last six matches, marked Everton's first away league win since February 28. Jack Grealish was absent due to disciplinary issues, but the team managed without him.
