Video: Fabian Schar restore Newcastle’s lead after Elanga has Nottingham Forest level

Posted by

Newcastle have restored their lead thanks to Fabian Schar. 

Bruno Guimaraes gave Newcastle an early lead with a superb volley but Anthony Elanga equalised for the home side 16 minutes later.

Showing great speed and composure, the Swede went past the two Newcastle defenders to finish past the keeper into the back of the net.

But Newcastle restored their lead in the 43rd minute. The goal came from another set piece. Trippier’s deep free-kick is not met on the first bounce, but Botman manages to head it back into the danger area for this centre-back partner Schar to shoot it first time into the bottom left corner.
