The revelation team of the Premier League stagnated with the arrival of 2023. In seven matches for the English league, since January, they could only win two. They had five games without adding three points and the fans were starting to worry. With this background, the 'Magpies' arrived for the match against Wolverhampton.
The match started as expected, and at 26 minutes Alexander Isak scored the first goal for the home team. However, the second goal resisted, and the lack of scoring ability seemed costly. Hee-Chan Hwang took advantage of Tripper's slip to equalize at 70'.
Miguel Almiron had just come in a few minutes before the equalizer, at 68'; Wolves' goal surprised the team. But, the Paraguayan came in to solve the match and he did it.
At 79', Almiron started from the right flank, put the ball at the feet of Joe Willock and ran into the box. The midfielder passed it to the Paraguayan and he placed it in the far side of the goalkeeper.
In this way, Newcastle ends a streak of five games without achieving a victory in the local league. Their last celebration had been on January 15 against Fulham.
