Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has urged his team to remain calm after defeating Everton.
The Magpies picked up a crucial three points with a 3-1 victory, coming from behind via an own goal by Mason Holgate, while Ryan Fraser and Kieran Trippier also got themselves on the scoresheet.
This win took the club off the foot of the table, as they overtook Burnley, placing pressure on the teams above them as they now sit just one point behind Norwich City, who are just outside of the relegation zone in 17th.
"It is a big result for us because it was back-to-back wins. Consecutive wins in the Premier League are rare, they can change your status and elevate the club," Howe told BT Sport.
"We have to stay calm and focus on the next game. I think we are in a better place, but football has a way of twisting and turning, so we are not getting ahead of ourselves, we know how tough this league can be."
The Magpies will now be searching for their third consecutive victory on Saturday as they face Aston Villa in the Premier League. body check tags ::
