Newcastle manager, Eddie Howe has explained why his team defeated Chelsea 1-0 in Saturday’s Premier League tie.
Howe watched as Newcastle defeated Chelsea at St. James’ Park on Saturday evening.
Joe Willock’s fabulous second-half strike was all the Magpies needed to secure all three points against the Blues.
Speaking at his post-match press conference after the game, Howe said Newcastle defeated Chelsea because his players performed at a very high level against Graham Potter’s side at home.
According to him, Newcastle gave Chelsea big problems during the encounter.
Howe said, “It was a great win for us. The performance level was very high.
“With the ball, I think we were really high-level ourselves. We gave them big problems.
“It was a great goal from Joe. I’m already pleased with him. Overall, it was a high-level performance from more of the players.”
