On Sunday (23rd), one of the first matches in the EPL, Newcastle hosted Tottenham Hotspur, which was originally regarded as an evenly matched battle, but Tottenham Hotspur had a plague of hair waves and conceded 5 goals in a row in only 21 minutes, eventually suffering a 1-6 defeat, and the chances of competing for the next UEFA Europa League ticket are getting slimmer and slimmer.
Newcastle were in 4th place, 3 points ahead of Tottenham, who had played a game more, and it was a crucial game for the top 4 to secure a place in the next UEFA Europa League. However, Tottenham Hotspur were like a defenseless team, allowing Newcastle to take advantage of them. Zurichon's powerful shot was saved by Lloris, and then Mephie added a second to break the deadlock. 6 minutes later, it was Zurichon's turn to fire a shot from a narrow position into the net, and then Mephie's long-distance shot scored a second goal. It was the second fastest 5-0 lead in the history of the Premier League, just a little slower than Manchester City's 5-0 lead over Walford in the opening 18 minutes of September 2019, and some Tottenham Hotspur fans didn't even look at them as they pulled out of the stadium.
