Premier League: Everton remain uneaten in 3-2 Newcastle win

Their first goal came after five minutes when Belgium international Kevin Mirallas left Newcastle full-back Davide Santon trailing and sped down the right flank before delivering a low ball for compatriot Lukaku.

The 20-year-old, on loan from Chelsea, produced enough power with his strike at the near post to beat Tim Krul.

Everton came close to doubling the lead straight from the restart, when Barkley’s snap-shot whistled past the left-hand upright.

The England international was on loan at Sheffield Wednesday last season and the 19-year-old made Newcastle duo Moussa Sissoko and Cheick Tiote look like sluggish veterans.

The Everton youngster scored his side’s second with a well-placed finish from 15 yards after Lukaku showed both his physical superiority and craft in one move to turn his marker and set up the chance.

This time, goalkeeper Tim Howard’s long kick was misjudged by Fabricio Coloccini to allow in Lukaku, who got the faintest of touches to push it past Krul and walk the ball into the empty net.

Newcastle manager Alan Pardew made two changes at the break, replacing Hatem Ben Arfa with fellow midfielder Cabaye and centre-back Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa with Mike Williamson.

One of the changes had an immediate effect for the Magpies. Moments after the restart Yoan Gouffran saw his dinked effort come off the post before Cabaye, who did not start because of a groin problem, smashed a fantastic 25-yard shot into the top corner.

Remy beat Everton captain Phil Jagielka to Mathieu Debuchy’s header into the six-yard area and poked the ball beyond Howard.

The French striker, on loan from QPR, then saw his powerful drive fly a ball’s width over the bar.
