Video West Ham 2-2 Newcastle
West Ham and Newcastle both impressed in the European Cup last week. With the impressive performance of both, the audience at London Stadium truly witnessed a heated competition.
With home field advantage, West Ham did not hesitate to launch a preemptive strike. In the 8th minute, the home team at London Stadium took the lead. Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope entered and exited inappropriately, creating conditions for Soucek to easily tap the ball into the goal to open the score.
Some time later, Newcastle tried to push the team higher, looking for an equalizer. In the 29th and 32nd minutes, Almiron and Dan Burn took turns finishing dangerously, but the goal still did not come to “Chich Choe”. Therefore, the away team accepted being behind after the first half.
HT: West Ham 1-0 Newcastle
Scored
West Ham: Soucek 8′
After the break, Newcastle attacked more effectively thanks to the brilliance of striker Alexander Isak. In the 57th minute, Isak received a “gift” from Alvarez when the West Ham player headed the ball back to the correct position of the Newcastle striker. This striker easily beat goalkeeper Areola to equalize for Newcastle.
Just 5 minutes later, Isak quickly scored twice, helping Newcastle advance. Trippier assisted with a sensational one-touch pass, after receiving the ball from Bruno Guimaraes. Even in the 73rd minute, Isak had a chance to score a hat-trick. He dribbled the ball past goalkeeper Areola but ended up hitting the post.
That miss cost Newcastle the price. In the 89th minute, substitute Mohammed Kudus launched a dangerous kick, setting the score 2-2.
