The two teams showed very different performances. Even though at the start of the first half Sheffield looked like it could keep up with Newcastle but after Newcastle scored the second goal, Sheffield's confidence crumbled and they looked messy on the field. Newcastle could read the problems Sheffield was facing on the field, therefore they played even more fiercely in the second half, as if they knew very well that they could score lots of goals with their opponents in a ragged condition.
Newcastle deserved accolades after an impressive performance away, that's one of the basic way to bounce back to winning games, Eddie Howe is impressed and would motivates his squad to continue like this for the purpose to remain strong when encountering elite and average clubs. Sheffield United didn't stand a chance to withstand the incredible performance of Newcastle, having their defendlines open and invaded with goals. The Magpies humiliated the blades at the Bramall Lane stadium, 8 goals conceded and Sheffield sitting at 20th, relegation zone.
