Newcastle Defeats Tottenham 2-1 in Premier League

Newcastle United secured a 2-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur, extending their winning streak to six games across all competitions. Tottenham initially took the lead with a Dominic Solanke header, but Anthony Gordon quickly equalized, despite controversy over a potential handball by Joelinton in the buildup. Alexander Isak then scored, marking his seventh consecutive league match with a goal, further solidifying Newcastle's position in the race for Champions League qualification. Tottenham's struggles continue as they sit in 11th place, having won just one of their last eight league games, increasing pressure on manager Ange Postecoglou. The defeat also marked Tottenham’s fifth home loss of the season, with their injury-ravaged squad missing key players. Despite a spirited second-half effort, including a shot hitting the woodwork, Spurs were unable to find an equalizer.
