Wesley Fofana missed an early opportunity with a free header, while Alejandro Garnacho, Cole Palmer and Enzo Fernandez all found pockets of space that suggested Newcastle might struggle to contain them.
Instead, Newcastle seized their moment. Tino Livramento advanced confidently from deep before threading a precise pass forward. Joe Willock timed his run perfectly, breaking Chelsea’s defensive line before squaring the ball across goal.
Anthony Gordon arrived at the right moment, sliding in to convert from close range in the 18th minute. From that point, Newcastle were organised and resilient. Chelsea attempted to respond, with Palmer forcing a save and Liam Delap testing Aaron Ramsdale soon after his introduction.
