Newcastle 5 – 1Sheffield United 

Auston Trusty’s Sheffield United were thumped away from home after being Relegated by Newcastle. 

Anel Ahmedhodzic got the dream start for Sheffield United, scoring in the fifth minute with a back post finish off of a corner kick routine. However, Alexander Isak clawed Newcastle back into the game in the 26th minute after running in behind Trusty.

It soon went from dream start to nightmare, with the second half sliding out of control. Bruno Guimaraes scored the game winner in the 54th minute with a diving header, and Isak converted a 61st minute penalty kick to put the game out of reach.

Ben Osborn added misery to insult with a 65th minute own goal, before Callum Wilson capped off a stellar second half with a 72nd minute goal.

Sheffield United will look to spoil the party for Nottingham Forest who visit on Saturday in their next Premier league game.
