First half highlights
On a good movement initiated on the right side, Miguel Almiron places his head at the penalty spot. The latter passes slightly above Martinez’s goal.
Served full axis in the thirty meters, Emiliano Buendia is far too alone and must therefore rely on an individual exploit. Happy to keep the leather at first, he offers himself a big bridge on Botman before going to the duel with Pope. The English goalkeeper came out well and finished first on the ball.
On a ball from the right, Joelinton rushes slightly left side and takes his chance from 25 meters. Martinez dives well and pushes back before getting up to catch in extremis. The Villans goalkeeper will remain on the ground for a few minutes, visibly stunned in this contact.
On a good movement started on the right side, Trippier sends an excellent cross at the entrance to the penalty area towards Almiron who manages to strike despite the presence of Mings and Konsa. Good save from Olsen, who came into play in place of Martinez, victim of a concussion a few minutes earlier.
On a good move from Newcastle, Kieran Trippier takes his chance and is countered by Ashley Young’s arm on his tackle. Callum Wilson takes care of hitting him and deceives Olsen, gone on his right. 1-0 for Newcastle.
On a new good movement initiated on the left side, Willock launches Wilson in depth. Alone, Wilson goes to the duel with Olsen, bypasses him on his left and shoots in the goal: refused for an offside.
Half time score Newcastle – Aston Villa: 1 – 0

On a counter assassin, Joelinton is at the conclusion for Newcastle. After a shot from Wilson well repelled by Olsen, the Brazilian follows and shoots into the empty net. 3-0 for the Geordies.
Served on the right side, Miguel Almiron wraps a shot slightly on the right side. The strike is sumptuous and comes to stay in the small left net of a helpless Olsen: 4-0.
