Everton defeated Newcastle 1-0 at St James' Park with a goal from Thierno Barry, their second win over the side in four days.

Everton defeated Newcastle 1-0 at St James' Park on Tuesday, extending their dominance over the side after a 3-1 cup victory four days earlier. Thierno Barry tapped in from barely a metre out in the 49th minute after Newcastle goalkeeper Lukas Hornicek let a shot from Tyrique George squirm under his body. Newcastle fans jeered their team, whose first shot on target did not arrive until the 85th minute.

Newcastle ended the match with ten men after substitute Jacob Ramsey was sent off for two yellow cards in as many minutes in stoppage time. The second yellow came after Ramsey planted his studs into the ankle of Everton midfielder Harrison Armstrong. Newcastle have lost four of their past five games in all competitions.

Everton climbed above Newcastle to seventh place after nine rounds, despite recent defeats to Chelsea and Arsenal. "It was probably our best performance of the season," Everton defender James Tarkowski said. The club managed the win without Jack Grealish, a Manchester City loanee who was dropped for disciplinary reasons and did not travel to the north east. For Barry, it was his fourth league goal of the season. Newcastle dropped to 13th.
