Leeds 0 Newcastle 1: Vital Shelvey goal secures Toon’s SECOND Prem win of 2021-22 but Magpies stay in relegation zone

A Jonjo Shelvey free kick sealed only Newcastle’s SECOND win of the season – but a vital boost in their survival bid.

The midfielder hit the winner with 15 minutes to go and the travelling Newcastle fans nervously watched on as Eddie Howe’s men held on.

It leaves them now only one point adrift of safety, with their nearest rivals Norwich.
