Newcastle is level with Tottenham, occupying sixth place with the same number of points. In the first round, the Magpies defeated Southampton 1-0, despite playing with ten men after a red card in the 28th minute. Joelinton scored the only goal, and the opponent couldn’t respond.
In the second round, Newcastle scored only one goal again, but Bournemouth also replied and almost snatched the victory, if not for a VAR-overturned goal in added time. The week ended with another tense match in the League Cup against Nottingham Forest, where Newcastle had to decide the outcome in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw in regular time. Eddie Howe’s team eventually secured the win, prevailing 2-1.
Tottenham started the season with a disappointing draw against Leicester, who had just returned from the Championship. Ange Postecoglou’s team dominated the first half, resulting in a goal by Pedro Porro, but in the second half, Leicester managed to equalize, finishing the match 1-1.
In the next round, the Spurs secured a more convincing victory over Everton, thrashing the Toffees 4-0, with Son Heung-min scoring twice. Although the game did not reflect such a significant advantage on the scoreboard, Tottenham’s confidence and control were evident. The club now sits in fifth place with four points.
