"Thierno Barry came off the bench to fire Everton to Premier League victory at Newcastle for the second successive season in a dramatic conclusion to a madcap encounter. Barry struck seconds after fellow substitute Jacob Murphy looked to have snatched a draw for the hosts to claim a 3-2 win and condemn the Magpies to a third successive league defeat at St James' Park."
"Jarrad Branthwaite had headed the visitors into an early lead which was cancelled out by Jacob Ramsey, but Nick Pope's blunder handed Beto a second goal on a plate. Eddie Howe's men, who had lost to Aston Villa and Brentford in their previous two home games, have now won just one of their seven most recent league fixtures."
"By contrast, the Toffees climbed into eighth place as they hit 40 points, just five adrift of the top six, after a committed display. It took a stunning late save by Jordan Pickford to seal it."
