Interesting independent ratings on Newcastle United players following Newcastle 2 Spurs 0 | OneFootball

It ended Newcastle 2 Spurs 0.

A really good team performance and despite eight changes, the quality and flow of the team continued.

Eddie Howe’s side making it five wins in their last six games in all competitions.

I think everybody contributed to this performance and result, as United now face Fulham at St James’ Park in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.

Fabian Schar heading in Sandro Tonali’s corner in the first half, then Nick Woltemade grabbing his seventh Newcastle United goal when heading in from Joe Willock’s perfect cross.

Looking at the individuals in black and white, interesting to get an independent perspective on how this played out.
