Summarised from 3 outlets · 5 reports · Updated 2 Nov, 23:03 · Archive

Everton earned their first away Premier League win of the season with a 1-0 victory at Newcastle, courtesy of Thierno Barry's second-half goal.

Everton won 1-0 at Newcastle on Tuesday evening, with Thierno Barry scoring the decisive goal in the 49th minute. The strike came from a quick free-kick by Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall which released Tyrique George; George's shot squeezed under goalkeeper Lukas Hornicek, leaving Barry to tap home into an empty net.

Newcastle's performance drew criticism from commentators. Sky Sports' commentator Andy Hinchcliffe described the defending as 'truly shocking' and the goalkeeping as 'terrible'. Jamie Carragher called Newcastle 'poor'. The hosts were booed off at both half-time and full-time. They did not register a shot on target until the 85th minute, when substitute Yoane Wissa shot wide, before forcing a save from Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford five minutes later. Anthony Elanga came closest to equalising for Newcastle when he hit the post in the 66th minute.

Everton had spurned earlier chances, with Barry and Harrison Armstrong both wasting opportunities in the first half. Everton were again without Jack Grealish. Newcastle's misery deepened when substitute Jacob Ramsey was sent off in the 98th minute for receiving two bookings within 86 seconds. This was Newcastle's fourth loss in their last five games in all competitions, following a 3-1 Carabao Cup defeat to Everton four days earlier.
