Timm Klose scored in the second minute of added time in the first half. Martin Olsson scored in the third minute of added time in the second half.

Comments:

League position: 19th Newcastle United had now lost each of their last eight away games in the Premier League. It became their longest run of consecutive away league defeats since a nine-game run between May and October in 1977 in League Division One. They were now four points worse off than at this stage (31 games) of the 2008-09 season when they were relegated from the Premier League. The Premier League’s Goal Accreditation Panel ruled on the following: - Newcastle United’s first goal against Norwich City on Saturday 2nd April 2016 has been confirmed as an Aleksander Mitrovic goal. (Circular 19 – 8th April 2016)
