ISAK AT THE DOUBLE AS NEWCASTLE EDGE SEVEN-GOAL THRILLER AGAINST FOREST

Alexander Isak scored twice as Newcastle came from behind to beat Nottingham Forest 4-3 in a Premier League thriller.

Against the run of play, the visitors took the lead when they were gifted possession and Callum Hudson-Odoi fired in a shot from around 25 yards out past the returning Nick Pope.

From the rest of the half, it was one-way traffic with The Magpies scoring four goals in 11 minutes.

Lewis Miley equalised after drilling the ball beautifully in the bottom corner with his left foot.

Two minutes later, Jacob Murphy bundled the ball in from close range after a swift counter attack.

The Magpies made it 3-1 from the penalty spot when Ola Aina was penalised for handball. Isak stepped up and just did enough to score with his Panenka effort.

And the Sweden striker scored the fourth when his shot took a wicked deflection for his 50th Premier League goal.

Nuno Espirito Santo saw his side dominate the second half and reduce their deficit through goals from Nikola Milenkovic and Ryan Yates, but The Magpies hung on for victory.
