Everton left St James’ Park with a 1–0 win over Newcastle United on Monday, November 2. Thierno Barry scored the only goal early in the second half, and the visitors held on through a late Newcastle push.
If you have seen more than one Newcastle–Everton score this week, there is a reason: the clubs also met in the Carabao Cup. This was their Premier League meeting in Newcastle, not a replay of that earlier cup result.
Barry took the chance that mattered
According to Newcastle’s official match report, Barry finished from close range after Tyrique George’s effort escaped goalkeeper Lukáš Horníček. It was the decisive moment in a match where opportunities had already gone begging at both ends.
Harvey Barnes had supplied dangerous balls for Newcastle before the break, while Everton’s Harrison Armstrong could not convert a close-range opportunity just before half-time. After taking the lead, Everton continued to threaten: Horníček made further saves, including one from a Jarrad Branthwaite header.
Newcastle still had openings. Jacob Ramsey sent an effort wide, and Jordan Pickford later kept out Yoane Wissa as the home side tried to rescue a point. The official report also confirmed Ramsey’s dismissal after two stoppage-time bookings.
A significant away win for Everton
Sky Sports’ match report places Barry’s goal in the 49th minute and identifies the result as Everton’s first away league victory of the season. Its account also records Anthony Elanga hitting the post in the 66th minute, another moment when Newcastle came close without changing the score.
At the end of the match, Everton had moved to seventh in the table, with Newcastle in 13th. Those are post-match positions rather than a prediction of where either team will finish. Newcastle had now lost four of their last five matches across all competitions.
For anyone catching up rather than following live, the essential distinction is straightforward: Monday’s league match is finished, Everton won 1–0, and Barry supplied the winner. The linked reports provide the fuller sequence without mixing it up with the clubs’ other recent meeting.
