Gordon shines as Newcastle beat Wolves 3-0

NEWCASTLE, England : Newcastle United returned to winning ways with a 3-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League on Saturday thanks to goals from Alexander Isak, Anthony Gordon and a late strike from Tino Livramento.

Newcastle took the lead when Gordon initiated a counter-attack and when his pass found Bruno Guimaraes bursting into the box, the Brazilian's shot was blocked by Maximilian Kilman, only for Isak to head the ball in as it looped up in the air.

As the rain came lashing down, Gordon doubled their lead when he capitalised on a mix-up after Wolves keeper Jose Sa's effort to block a low cross saw the ball fall to the winger, who scored with aplomb.

Wolves attempted a comeback but Newcastle's defence stood firm while goalkeeper Martin Dubravka made a string of saves before Livramento scored an unexpected solo goal in stoppage time, firing home as he fell over to seal the three points.
