Newcastle beat 10-man Fulham 4-1

Newcastle put 10-man Fulham to the sword in a destruction at Craven Cottage as Miguel Almiron grabbed a brace.

Only six minutes in, Marco Silva’s men were handed the ultimate disadvantage, as Nathaniel Chalobah’s original yellow card was overturned into a red as the midfielder’s studs did come down on Sean Longstaff’s ankle.

Callum Wilson opened the scoring not long after, but Miguel Almiron scored the pick of the bunch as he watched a Bruno Guimares pass drop over his shoulder, and then volleyed the ball over Bernd Leno.

Longstaff then got in on the action just before the second-half, and Almiron added Newcastle’s fourth and his second in the 57th minute. Fulham added a consolation but it mattered  little to Eddie Howe’s side.
