Newcastle United suffers 4-0 loss to Manchester City

Newcastle United suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat against Manchester City, marking their second consecutive loss in the Premier League. The match saw Omar Marmoush score a first-half hat-trick, exploiting Newcastle's poor defensive performance, particularly from Kieran Trippier. Legendary player Alan Shearer expressed his frustration on social media, describing the first half as 'pathetic' and criticizing the team's inability to compete. Newcastle's hopes of maintaining a top-four position have dimmed following this loss, especially after failing to capitalize on Chelsea's recent defeat. Coach Eddie Howe's tactical decisions and player performances were heavily scrutinized, as Newcastle struggled to regain momentum after previous cup victories. The team is now looking to regroup ahead of upcoming matches against Nottingham Forest and Liverpool.
