To advance to third, reckless Newcastle hammered Tottenham six goals

Posted : 24 April 2023
On their way to a 6-1 humiliation at a rocking St James' Park on Sunday, Newcastle United destroyed Premier League top-four rivals Tottenham Hotspur with a five-goal onslaught in the opening 21 minutes.

As fifth-placed Tottenham crumbled like a house of cards, a game that was regarded as a key six-pointer in the fight to seal Champions League qualifying was essentially finished before the clock had hit 10 minutes.

Hugo Lloris mishandled a Joelinton shot in the second minute, setting up Jacob Murphy for the game's first goal. Four minutes later, Joelinton circled Lloris to score his team's second goal.

The crowd was in shock when Alexander Isak scored twice with precision in the space of two minutes to make it 5-0 after Murphy scored Newcastle's third and his second goals from long range.

The only club to establish a five-goal lead earlier in Premier League history was Manchester City, which did it against Watford in the first 18 minutes of the match in 2019.

Many of the Tottenham supporters, who were seated in the Leazes Stand, left before halftime because they couldn't take any more humiliation.

There was just one thing left to decide: whether Newcastle could exceed their 8-0 Premier League triumph over Sheffield Wednesday in 1999 and whether Tottenham could avoid matching their 7-0 Premier League loss to Liverpool in 1978.
