West Ham United secured a crucial 2-0 away win over Newcastle, easing the pressure on manager Julen Lopetegui and giving him a much-needed lifeline.

West Ham's 2-0 victory over Newcastle was a timely lifeline for manager Julen Lopetegui. The Spanish coach had been under increasing pressure, with the team's results and performances falling short of expectations since his summer appointment.

Reports had suggested that Lopetegui was on the brink of dismissal, with only two games to turn things around. The matches against Newcastle and Arsenal were crucial, and West Ham's win at St James' Park has provided a much-needed boost.

The performance was not only a welcome result but also a promising display that offered hope to West Ham fans. The team defended solidly, attacked with purpose, and showed clinical finishing to produce a near-perfect away performance.

The goals were scored by:

° Tomáš Souček in the 10th minute, assisted by Emerson

° Aaron Wan-Bissaka in the 53rd minute, assisted by Jarrod Bowen
