Spurs' lead over the Magpies is cut to 10 points with six games remaining, but Newcastle have a far easier run-in.
Newcastle United’s Swedish striker #14 Alexander Isak celebrates after scoring their third goal during the English Premier League football match between Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur at St James’ Park in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, north east England on April 13, 2024. Newcastle stormed into the Premier League’s top six as Alexander Isak scored twice in a 4-0 thrashing of Tottenham to rekindle their outside hopes of a place in next season’s Champions League.
Eddie Howe was forced into a switch to a back three due to Newcastle’s abundance of injuries in defence. The Dutch centre-back has been one of the signings of the season for Spurs, but had an afternoon to forget.Straight from kick-off, Van de Ven fell over again as he tried to reach Pedro Porro’s backpass and Gordon took full advantage to score his 10th Premier League goal of the campaign.Newcastle could have had more before the break as Destiny Udogie’s last-ditch challenge denied Isak a second before the Swedish striker headed over from a corner.
The visitors also lost right-back Porro to injury to rub salt into the wounds of what could be a damaging day for their hopes of a return to the Champions League next season.
