As good as Newcastle have been, Leicester have been just as poor. The Foxes have been extremely mediocre at the back as Daniel Amartey fouled Joelinton with a loose challenge, while Boubakary Soumare was weak in the air for third. Patson Daka, at the other end, squandered two good chances as the hosts got back into the game 2-0 down. It has been a day to forget so far for Leicester.

Newcastle are marching towards second place in the Premier League as they have a 3-0 lead over Leicester City at half time. Chris Wood put the Magpies ahead in the third minute from the penalty spot after Joelinton had been fouled. Miguel Almiron then continued his excellent season with a brilliant goal before Joelinton added a third with a powerful header. Eddie Howe’s men have been dominant in the first half.
