Newcastle suffered a 1-0 defeat to Everton at St James' Park on Monday, increasing pressure on manager Matthias Jaissle. Thierno Barry scored early in the second half, earning Everton a seventh-place finish in the Premier League while leaving Newcastle in 13th. Newcastle midfielder Jacob Ramsey received a red card in the final seconds for a foul on Harrison Armstrong.
The defeat marked Newcastle's fourth loss in their last five matches, with only two wins in their last seven. Jaissle and his team were booed off at both halftime and the final whistle, as the German coach faces mounting criticism of his first-season leadership. Newcastle's poor record on Mondays, with 22 losses in their last 33 matches on that day, contributed to their misery.
Barry's eighth goal of the season, including four in his last six matches, secured Everton's second win against Newcastle in five days, following a 3-1 victory in the League Cup on Thursday.
