Newcastle United Defeats Leicester City 4-0

Newcastle United ended their four-game winless streak with a commanding 4-0 victory over Leicester City at St James' Park, marking Ruud van Nistelrooy's first defeat as Leicester boss. Jacob Murphy opened the scoring with a well-placed shot following a set-piece, before Bruno Guimaraes and Alexander Isak added two quick goals early in the second half. Murphy then sealed his brace to cap off a dominant performance by the Magpies, who controlled the match with significant attacking pressure, limiting Leicester to just one shot on target. This win boosts Newcastle into the top half of the Premier League table, while Leicester remains perilously close to the relegation zone. Eddie Howe's side displayed a sharp contrast in attacking efficiency compared to their visitors, who struggled defensively and offensively throughout the match.
