Yesterday in the EFL Cup, Newcastle faced a very intense match against Tranmere. Magpies had a slow start with all attempts and attacks not kicking off and had lousy defense that led to an early shock attack for Tranmere’s Elliott Nevitt at the 21st minute. Jamaal Lascelles boosts the energy and hope for Newcastle as he tallies a goal during the 40th minute. Then on the 45+4’ mark, Tranmere’s Hemmings received a yellow card – transferring the energy to Newcastle. Chris Wood scored the winning goal on the 52’ with the assist from Trippier to seal the deal for Newcastle, registering their win in the EFL.
Despite of the huge gap on the EPL table, with Newcastle sitting at the sixth spot 1W-2D and Wolves at the 18th, under relegation with 1D-2L, the game will still be an exciting matchup as both aiming to get a much needed win to boost team standing, team’s morale, and to improve their last season performance.
