EPL: Newcastle beat West Ham in a seven goal thriller
In the 30th round of the English Premier League Newcastle and West Ham kept the fans in suspense until the last seconds.
It was Newcastle who opened the scoring when Isak had his goal in the sixth minute, but then everything went the West Ham way: Antonio and Kudus scored two goals against the “magpies” before the break. And at the very beginning of the second half Bowen increased the visitors' advantage.
Then Newcastle's fantastic comeback began. Isak in the 77th minute and Barnes in the 83rd managed to reduce the score to a draw. And the victory for the Magpies was brought by Barnes - 4:3.
