Newcastle 3-1 Brighton: William Osula Project Pays Off as Strike Helps Ease Pressure on Eddie Howe
Harvey Barnes scored in stoppage time as Newcastle ended a four-game league losing run and Brighton slipped to seventh.
- Newcastle United defeated Brighton and Hove Albion 3-1 at St James' Park on Thursday, snapping a four-game Premier League losing streak in front of chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan and co-owner Jamie Reuben.
- Will Osula opened the scoring 12 minutes in with his third goal in four Premier League games, while Dan Burn doubled the lead with a flicked header to give the Magpies a 2-0 half-time advantage.
- Jack Hinshelwood pulled Brighton back in the 61st minute following a quick exchange with Danny Welbeck, but Nick Pope made vital saves to preserve Newcastle's lead as the visitors pressed.
- Harvey Barnes sealed the victory in the fifth minute of added time after Joelinton rolled an effort wide, ending Brighton's five-game unbeaten run and dropping them to seventh in the standings.
- The Magpies can now look upward in the final three matches of the season rather than nervously over their shoulder, as the result stopped the rot under manager Eddie Howe with ownership watching.
