Newcastle v Tottenham LIVE: Result and final score from Premier League after Alexander Isak restores lead

Newcastle beat Spurs again at St James' Park, albeit in a little tighter fashion than before. Newcastle are now seven points from nine in an impressive start. The Magpies opened the scoring with Harvey Barnes just before the interval. Lloyd Kelly crossed aptly from the left and the midfielder scored in back-to-back Premier League starts for the first time since November 2022. After the break, this was cancelled out by a rather comical Dan Burn own goal, as Nick Pope failed to deal with Spurs' offensive pressure. Tottenham kept that impetus until the last knockings, largely inspired by Brennan Johnson, however just couldn't get the final touch. 12 minutes from the end of regulation time, Newcastle struck against the run of play to win. Jacob Murphy was played in, and squared unselfishly for Alexander Isak to seal Newcastle’s 26th Premier League win over Tottenham, their joint-most against a single opponent in the competition (also 26 v Aston Villa). The Toon have now won both of their first two home matches of a league season for the first time since 2009-10 in the Championship, and first time in the Premier League since 2000-01. Newcastle go fourth after this, with Spurs having to settle for 10th. The hosts ended the game with an xG of 1.57, while Spurs finished with 1.26. Thank you for joining us this afternoon, goodbye!

Just before that change, Johnson frustratingly fouls Guimaraes. It's not looking good for Spurs as Newcastle look to see this one out.

What looks like a final Newcastle change, Miguel Almiron comes on for Gordon.

The free-kick was poor by Gordon. Vicario claims and Spurs start a counter which finds Johnson on the right. He flashes it across the box but no one's there!

Guimaraes wins a late foul from Kulusevski on the left and look at the passion! He turns and celebrates to the home crowd. They need to push their boys home now. Final stretch.

Spurs are staring down the barrel of yet another defeat at St James' Park. We're going to have five minutes of added time here.

Werner is in behind on the right. The legs are tired, but Burn has timed a tackle on the right byline to perfection. It's another corner. Bergvall takes and it's cleared for a throw on the right.

It's a messy attack, but Newcastle don't care. Isak's scruffy deflected effort has given the hosts a late corner. The ball is right where they want it. Vicario came for the ball and slipped, yet Spurs are able to clear from the set-piece.

Bentancur is on, and he's straight in the book. Gordon looks to bring the ball away down the left wing and Bentancur's tackle is a bit heavy on the old Everton favourite. He got the ball, but it's more about the follow through.
