Newcastle Held to Scoreless Draw at Leeds After Three Winless Games

Newcastle United remains winless in the 2025–26 Premier League season after a goalless draw against Leeds United at Elland Road, marking their third match without a score. The team struggled offensively, with only two shots on target and a lack of finishing despite having promising chances, highlighting ongoing attacking issues following the absence of striker Alexander Isak, who is close to transferring to Liverpool. New signing Nick Woltemade was present but did not play, while William Osula started but made little impact, underscoring Newcastle's shallow attacking options. Leeds, managed by Daniel Farke, also failed to capitalize on opportunities, relying on a defensive setup and counter-attacks, with notable chances saved by Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope. Both teams canceled each other out in a largely uneventful match, leaving Newcastle with just one point from three games and lingering questions about their attacking potency under Eddie Howe. The Magpies hope Woltemade and other new signings can bolster their offense as the season progresses.
