Eddie Howe concurs with Nuno Espírito Santo’s assessment of Newcastle United following their 3-1 victory over Forest.Nuno Espírito Santo acknowledged that Newcastle United dominated his Nottingham Forest team during Sunday’s 3-1 victory at the City Ground.Alexander Isak, Joelinton, and Harvey Barnes of Newcastle secured their third consecutive victory in all competitions by coming from behind.

Forest’s three-game winning sequence was severed by the Magpies, who accumulated 17 shots to Forest’s nine and possessed the ball for 57% of the time.Forest remains in the top five of the Premier League table, with Newcastle a point behind them in eighth place, despite the outcome. In the aftermath of his team’s loss, Espírito Santo conceded that the superior team emerged victorious.

 


The Forest manager acknowledged, “I am unable to assert that that was a poor performance; that is entirely implausible.” “We faced a formidable opponent that was capable of containing us and then inflicting damage through our counterattacking tactics.” It is a lesson that we must learn.

“I must acknowledge that we faced a strong team today, and they were superior to us in numerous instances.” There is nothing to comment on the athletes; the character and conviction were present. And Howe was satisfied with the manner in which his team recovered in the second half after falling behind to Murillo’s header at the break. Howe expressed his satisfaction, stating that the team was in dire need of some momentum.

 

 

“We consistently emphasise the rapidity with which football can evolve and the potential for fortunes to shift. Consequently, the team’s demeanour has undergone a complete transformation following three victories.” “Today, I am exceedingly pleased.” It is a significant occasion for us to come back and win in the manner we did after being down 1-0 in an away game.

 

I believe the third goal in particular is a great example of the team we can be on transitions and the team we were the majority of last season. While you will always have spells in the game where you do not have the ball, can you be really effective when you are without it in any way, whether that be protecting your goal or counter-attacking? “We were aware of the significance of today, particularly in light of the two victories, and we are determined to ensure that it is not a false dawn.

 

” The players were faced with the challenge of overcoming a highly skilled team that was in excellent form and demonstrating their proficiency once more. The second half proved to be a turning point, as we are now discussing the possibility of playing three games.
