Newcastle United continued their impressive away form by securing a thrilling 3-2 victory over Southampton at St. Mary’s on Saturday afternoon.

The Magpies came from behind to snatch the win, extending their unbeaten run on the road to five matches.

Southampton Take Early Lead Before Isak Responds

The hosts were quick off the mark, with Jan Bednarek giving Southampton the lead early in the match.

However, Newcastle responded in stunning fashion.

Alexander Isak, who had failed to score in the previous match against Bournemouth, quickly found his form.

In just four minutes, Isak scored a quick-fire brace, turning the scoreline in Newcastle’s favor at 2-1.

Tonali Seals the Win for Newcastle

The game wasn’t over yet, though. Just after the break, Sandro Tonali sealed the win for Newcastle, scoring a goal that put them two ahead of Southampton.

This goal proved vital in helping Newcastle close the gap on the Premier League’s top three.

Magpies Close the Gap on Third Place

With this win, Newcastle now sit just three points behind Nottingham Forest, who suffered a heavy 5-0 defeat to Bournemouth earlier in the day.

The Magpies’ victory keeps their momentum going as they push toward a potential top-three finish.
