A pair of headers from Fabian Schar and Nick Woltemade sent holders Newcastle United into the Carabao Cup quarter-finals at the expense of Tottenham. Spurs have hurt a number of sides with their aerial ability this season, particularly at set-plays, but the much-changed hosts gave Thomas Frank's team a taste of their own medicine at St James' Park.

Newcastle took the lead midway through the first half when Schar easily rose above Lucas Bergvall to head them in front from Sandro Tonali's corner. Spurs players protested to referee Chris Kavanagh as Tonali took the corner just as defender Djed Spence got to his feet after putting his boot back on, but the goal stood. Woltemade doubled his side's lead with his sixth goal of the season after the German met Joe Willock's scooped cross and nodded past goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky, who missed the ball completely.

Spurs went close to immediately pulling one back when midfielder Pape Sarr's first-time effort forced Aaron Ramsdale into a flying save to his left. But Newcastle, who also had Harvey Barnes smack the bar with an acrobatic effort, saw the game out to reach the last eight of the competition for the fourth consecutive season.

Newcastle Fans TV is undergoing a major transformation, with two of its three YouTube channels rebranded to reflect new directions: Lee's personal vlogging channel and NFTV Women, replacing NFTV Extra.

This restructuring marks a bold new chapter for the brand, as founder Lee commits full-time to expanding NFTV’s reach and diversifying its content. The flagship channel remains focused on matchday coverage and club news, while the new NFTV Women aims to spotlight female voices and perspectives in football. Meanwhile, Eddie Howe addressed the media today ahead of Newcastle’s Carabao Cup clash with Tottenham, emphasizing his desire to defend the trophy and providing injury updates on Sven Botman, Tino Livramento, and Lewis Hall. And the Elliot Anderson saga continues to swirl—despite his success at Nottingham Forest and a reported £100 million valuation, Newcastle’s interest in bringing their academy graduate back refuses to fade.

Newcastle head to the Amex Stadium with momentum, but manager Eddie Howe struck a measured tone in his pre-match press conference. He confirmed that Lewis Hall and Tino Livramento are still being monitored closely, with Hall likely to miss out due to a lingering knock, while Livramento remains a doubt but could feature depending on late fitness tests. Interestingly, Howe also addressed Yoane Wissa, clarifying that although Wissa is not a Newcastle player, his name came up in broader injury discussions—likely a mix-up or media speculation. On the administrative side, Howe praised Ross Wilson, Newcastle’s director of football, for his strategic vision and calm leadership, noting that Wilson’s influence has been “transformative” in shaping the club’s recruitment and long-term planning. With Brighton’s attacking flair and Newcastle’s defensive resilience, this fixture could hinge on tactical discipline and squad depth.

Anthony Gordon continued his fine form, finding the net for England in a friendly against Wales, then later scoring against Latvia, showcasing his growing influence on the national stage. Elsewhere, Dan Burn also featured for the Three Lions, while Joelinton was part of Brazil’s squad, and Sandro Tonali represented Italy in their qualifiers.

Marcus Rashford's latest stop on the road to redemption has led him to Barcelona and one of the elite stages in the global game. The 27-year-old England forward who lost his way at Manchester United and was brutally exiled by head coach Ruben Amorim may have finally landed on his feet on loan at Barcelona, under the expert guidance of head coach Hansi Flick.

Many observers felt Rashford was fortunate to be afforded such a platform following an earlier loan spell at Aston Villa that was hardly stellar, and which was ended prematurely by a hamstring injury. He will be as aware as anyone that if he falls short at Barcelona, he is unlikely to get another shot at a club of this stature.

And yet, in the space of nine stunning minutes of Barcelona's opening Champions League meeting with Newcastle at St James' Park, Rashford delivered a reminder of the thrilling talent he used to be - and still has time to be again.

To make Rashford's night even better, it was all done in front of watching England head coach Thomas Tuchel, who retains enough faith to keep including the forward in his squad despite the fact he has become something of a wandering star.

Rashford had hinted at what was to come in fleeting first-half moments, especially when an extravagant dummy left Kieran Trippier trailing in his wake, only to spoil his good work with a poor finish.

It all changed on 58 minutes when he opened up what had been a tight encounter, getting on the end of Jules Kounde's right-wing cross to plant a firm header beyond Newcastle keeper Nick Pope's right hand.

This was Rashford's first Champions League goal in almost four years and his first for Barcelona. What followed nine minutes later was arguably the finest moment he has produced in recent memory. He collected possession 20 yards out before, in the blink of an eye, flashing a stunning finish past Pope, the strike made even more spectacular because it kissed the bar before hitting the back of the net. Newcastle's keeper barely saw it, let alone had a chance to do something about it.

Rashford turned away to accept the acclaim of Barcelona's fans perched high in the Leazes End, the previous taunts of Newcastle's supporters silenced. The cameras cut to Tuchel, who was not moving a facial muscle but who must have surely been smiling inside at two such significant contributions.

Newcastle United fans have been riding a rollercoaster of emotions ahead of the blockbuster clash with Barcelona. The recent ticketing scandal—where so called supporters having been selling on their tickets for over inflated prices as tour tickets—has cast a shadow over what should be a celebratory return to Champions League nights at St. James’ Park. Meanwhile, Amanda Staveley’s tearful appearance on The High Performance Podcast offered a poignant reminder of the human side of football ownership. Her heartfelt reflections on leaving the club and her unwavering love for the Toon Army struck a chord with fans across Tyneside. And just in time to lift spirits, Lee is back with his iconic whiteboard preview, breaking down tactics and key match-ups with the kind of passion and insight that’s become a pre-match ritual for many. With emotions running high and anticipation building, this fixture feels like more than just a game—it’s a moment.

Newcastle United secured their first Premier League win of the season with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers at St. James' Park. The match was decided by a towering header from club-record signing Nick Woltemade, who marked his debut with a goal in the 29th minute, converting Jacob Murphy’s lofted cross at the back post.

Despite Wolves starting brightly and forcing two early saves from Nick Pope, they failed to capitalise and remain winless at the bottom of the table.

Newcastle dominated possession and showed defensive resilience, with Bruno Guimarães picking up a late yellow card as tensions rose. The result lifts Eddie Howe’s side to ninth in the standings and offers a promising glimpse of life after Alexander Isak’s departure.

Newcastle United host Wolverhampton Wanderers at St. James’ Park in a clash between two sides desperate to kickstart their Premier League campaigns. The Magpies, still searching for their first win of the season, have shown defensive resilience but struggled to convert chances, drawing twice and losing narrowly to Liverpool. Eddie Howe will be hoping new signing Nick Woltemade can inject some attacking spark, though Yoane Wissa, also a new signing, misses out due to injury. Wolves, meanwhile, sit bottom of the table after three straight defeats, conceding eight goals in the process. Manager Vitor Pereira faces mounting pressure, and history isn’t on his side—Wolves have won just once in their last 22 visits to Tyneside. With both teams eager to break their winless streaks, expect a tense and potentially decisive encounter.

In a dramatic deadline-day shake-up, Liverpool have shattered the British transfer record by signing Alexander Isak from Newcastle for £125 million, handing the Swedish striker a six-year deal that marks a new era at Anfield. Isak’s move follows a tense standoff with Newcastle, where he refused to play amid broken promises, ultimately forcing the club’s hand. Meanwhile, Newcastle wasted no time in reshaping their attack, securing Yoane Wissa from Brentford in a £55 million deal.

Wissa, who scored 19 Premier League goals last season, arrives with Champions League ambitions and a fiery determination, having publicly demanded his exit from Brentford just hours before the transfer was finalised. With Isak gone and Wissa stepping in, both clubs have made bold moves that could redefine their seasons.

📲 Yoane Wissa’s Instagram bombshell - Wissa publicly called out Brentford, accusing them of breaking a written promise to let him leave if a fair offer came in. He said he’s been professional, transparent, and wants to move on for the sake of his career and family. Newcastle reportedly had a £40m bid rejected, while Brentford are now asking for £65m.

⚫⚪ Newcastle’s striker strategy - They’ve already signed Nick Woltemade for a club-record fee, but Eddie Howe wants one more forward before the window shuts. Jørgen Strand Larsen is also on their radar. He’s pushing for a move from Wolves, but the club is resisting — even offering him a new contract to stay. Both Wissa and Strand Larsen have been left out of their squads this weekend, signalling intent to force a move.

🔴 Isak to Liverpool? - This saga is the real domino. Isak has gone public too, saying his relationship with Newcastle “can’t continue” and that promises were broken. Liverpool’s initial £110m bid was rejected, but they’re expected to return with a record-breaking offer. Newcastle are now open to selling — but only if they lock in replacements.

🧩 What’s next? - If Newcastle can land either Wissa or Strand Larsen — or both — it likely unlocks Isak’s exit. But Brentford and Wolves are playing hardball, and time is running out.

A goalless draw at Elland Road tonight — Leeds and Newcastle shared the spoils in a tense but low-quality affair. Both sides struggled to create clear chances, with Leeds managing just one shot on target, a late effort from Dominic Calvert-Lewin that was denied by Nick Pope’s studs.

Newcastle, missing key attackers Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon, lacked bite up front despite dominating possession (57%). New signing Nick Woltemade watched from the stands, and his absence was felt as the Magpies failed to convert their control into goals1.

Leeds, meanwhile, remain unbeaten at home this season, but their attacking play fizzled out repeatedly in the final third. It’s a result that leaves both teams still searching for rhythm early in the campaign.

Newcastle are set for a club-record deal to sign Nick Woltemade from Stuttgart, reportedly worth £69 million including add-ons. The 23-year-old German striker is 6'6", but don’t let the height fool you—he’s technically gifted, creative, and known for drifting wide and dropping deep. He was scouted extensively by Andy Howe and preferred a move to the Premier League over Bayern Munich.

However, despite flying into the North East and completing his medical, Woltemade won’t be registered in time to face Leeds. His debut is expected after the international break, likely against Wolves at St James’ Park.

🚑 Team News vs Leeds United.
