In a focus battle in the 34th round of the Premier League that ended in the early morning of April 24, Beijing time, Newcastle won 3-0 away to Norwich. In the first half, Jorrington scored twice with a brilliant arcing ball and pushing the empty goal.
In the second half, Brazil international Guimarães picked out the goal and locked the score at 3-0! The new signings brought in in at a transfer fee of 42.1 million euros in the winter window have been in hot form in the last 3 league games, 3 goals and 1 assist. It is also thanks to Guimarães' outstanding performance that Newcastle has won four consecutive victories. In addition to this round of victory over Norwich, in the previous three league games, the "Magpies" defeated Wolves 1-0, Leicester City 2-1, and 1-0 Crystal Palace.
This season, Newcastle has experienced a change of ownership. The new boss, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, has a total asset of £320 billion, almost higher than the total assets of other Premier League team owners and 10 times the total assets of Manchester City bosses. This winter window, the new boss also invested heavily to help Newcastle attract reinforcements, which also made the strength of the "Magpie Army" a qualitative improvement.
After a four-game winning streak, Newcastle, who was once in the relegation zone, reached 43 points and finally returned to the top half of the table, overtaking Leicester City to 9th place, and they are expected to be relegated early in the next round of the league.
It is worth noting that in the next 2 rounds, Newcastle will face Liverpool and Manchester City, which are competing fiercely for the Premier League title. Newcastle's score against them is likely to affect the final attribution of this season's Premier League champions. As a result, Newcastle is expected to become the "judge" of this season's Premier League title race.
