  "account": "Everton secured their first Premier League away win since February, defeating Newcastle United 1-0 following a goalkeeping blunder by Lukas Hornicek. Ten-man Newcastle, who had suffered their fourth defeat in six top-flight games, struggled to register any clean sheets in their recent matches. BBC Sport's player ratings for the match were as follows:\n\n- Jordan Pickford of Everton received a 7, highlighting his predictable performance under heavy home fan scrutiny.\n- Jake O'Brien of Everton also earned a 7 for his contribution to the team's third consecutive Premier League win at St James' Park.\n- James Tarkowski, the Everton captain, received a commendable 7 for his commanding performance as the team achieved their fourth clean sheet of the season.\n- Other top-rated performers included Vitalii Mykolenko (7) and Merlin Rohl (7), who showcased their work ethic and dangerous positions during the match.\n- Everton's defense was led by a gritty performance from James Garner (8), a type of player which manager David Moyes appreciates.\n- Newcastle United, on the other hand, had a mixed bag of ratings, with most players scoring between 3 and 5. Tyrique George, who played a significant role in the goal that gifted Everton the lead, received a 7, while Jacob Ramsey was praised for rescuing the game before being sent off.",
