Newcastle, who played with one more man, stepped up their attack, Gordon hit the crossbar from a tight angle, but to make matters worse, Joelinton was also injured and was substituted. Fulham, who played with 10 men, remained undiminished in fighting spirit, and the counter-attack was still sharp, and the two teams temporarily exchanged blanks at half-time.
In the second half, Newcastle continued to press and frequently create danger, and in the 57th minute, Milley scored the ball in the penalty area and scored directly to break the deadlock, which was the first goal of the 17-year-old in the first team. The team took advantage of the victory to chase down, and in the 64th minute, teammates drew the defense in the middle, and Almiron at the back point received the ball and easily scored to extend the advantage.
In the 82nd minute of the final stage, Newcastle crossed a corner kick not far from the opponent, Dan Born received a pass from a teammate and scored at the back point, Newcastle beat Fulham 3-0 at the end of the game to end the losing streak, and a victory is really too important at the moment when the team is full of injuries.
