Newcastle United lost 3-0 against Everton at Goodison Park on Thursday evening - here are the player ratings from the match.
Eddie Howe made one forced change to his side that beat Manchester United 1-0 at St James' Park on Saturday with Martin Dubravka coming into the side in place of the injured Nick Pope in goal. Pope dislocated his shoulder and is set to be out for around four months following surgery with Dubravka making only his second Premier League start since the beginning of last season.
Dominic Calver-Lewin and Miguel Almiron had chances at either end for both sides in the opening 20 minutes before Dwight McNeil scuffed a great chance to put the hosts in front on the half-hour mark.
Calvert-Lewin then blasted an even better chance over on the volley in the run-up to half-time as the game remained goalless. The sides went in level at the break with Everton having the better chances in the opening 45.
Anthony Gordon had a great chance to open the scoring after the break at the ball fell kindly to him inside the area but his strike was comfortably saved by Jordan Pickford.
The Magpies were then made to rue their missed opportunities as a slip from Kieran Trippier allowed Dwight McNeil to break away and fire The Toffees ahead with 11 minutes remaining.
Everton then doubled their advantage late on with Abdoulaye Doucoure stroking the ball home from Jack Harrison's low cross. Substitute Beto then broke away to complete a convincing win for the home side.
Here are the Newcastle United player ratings from the game...
9. Miguel Almiron - 4
Squandered a good chance after being played in by Joelinton and blasted a shot over from the edge of the box. Guilty of some questionable decision-making in the final third. Headed a good opportunity over in the closing stages. | AFP via Getty Images
10. Anthony Gordon - 4
Struggled to make an impact on his return to Goodison Park. Swapped over to the right in an attempt to get involved in the first half before swapping back. Shot straight at Pickford from a great position, skied another chance soon after. Wasteful in front of goal. | Getty Images
11. Alexander Isak - 5
Had Pickford scrambling with a close-range header that went wide of the left post. Looked a little on the back foot at times but showed some real flair to release Anthony Gordon in the second half. Missed a good opportunity late on when one-on-one. | AFP via Getty Images
12. Emil Krafth - n/a
On for Lascelles 90: On for the closing stages as Newcastle conceded in stoppage time. | Getty Images
