Comments:

League position: 13th Kenedy became the first player to score two goals for Newcastle United at St James' Park in the Premier League since Georginio Wijnaldum on 15 May 2016. The Magpies scored as many goals in this game as they had in their previous six games at St James' Park in the Premier League. They were now unbeaten in their last six home games in all competitions (won three) after losing their previous five at St James' Park.

Comments:

League position: 17th Manager Mauricio Pellegrino was sacked two days after this game. Southampton had now won one of their last 17 games in the Premier League (lost seven). This was the Saints' first defeat in their last five away games in the Premier League (won one). They had now conceded three or more goals in four of their 30 games so far in this Premier League season.
