Hornicek error decides
Everton beat Newcastle United 1-0 at St. James' Park on Monday, with Thierno Barry scoring in the 49th minute after Lukas Hornicek let Tyrique George's shot squirm under his body.
ESPN said Newcastle were reduced to 10 men after Ramsey’s late sending off, and the match ended with the Magpies losing 0-1.
BBC Sport users rated the turning point as a goalkeeping howler, with Lukas Hornicek receiving a 4 after he allowed Tyrique George's routine attempt to squirm under his body and present Thierno Barry with the goal.
ESPN recorded that Newcastle created 17 shots with two on target, while Everton registered 16 shots with five on target and led in expected goals at 2.15 to 1.47.
Ratings and red cards
BBC player ratings described Jacob Ramsey as a 3 after he was sent off, and the BBC also noted that Ramsey was booked after a confrontation with Johnson. ESPN’s live commentary said, "RAMSEY HAS NOW BEEN SENT OFF!" after the substitute caught the ankle of Armstrong in stoppage time.
The AP account said Newcastle fans jeered their team at halftime and again at the fulltime whistle after a fourth loss in its last five games in all competitions. Sofascore said the winning goal arrived in the 49th minute and survived VAR checks, and it added that Everton managed to preserve the lead through the final minutes.
Table impact and context
The AP said Everton climbed above Newcastle in the standings and up to seventh place after nine rounds, completing a four-day double after its English League Cup win on Thursday. AP also said Everton ended the game with 10 men after substitute Jacob Ramsey picked up two yellow cards in as many minutes deep into second-half stoppage time.
BBC Sport framed the result as Newcastle suffering a fourth defeat in six top-flight games, while Everton recorded their first Premier League away win since February. Goal.com’s match account said the turning point came four minutes after the restart, when a huge error by Hornicek gifted Thierno Barry the opener in the 49th minute.
