Sheffield United were on the opposite end of a stunning game that saw Newcastle score eight times with eight different goalscorers in the game.
The first goal came in the 21st minute and Newcastle scored a goal every 14 minutes thereafter in what was easily the most stunning game of the Premier League campaign so far.

Worse yet, the club was also knocked out of the EFL Cup at the second round stage to Lincoln City with a 0-0 game seeing them knocked out on penalties in the end.
As for West Ham, it’s been a sensational start to the season where they were expected to fight relegation for the most part.
What’s more, after a midweek victory over the side that defeated the Blades in the League Cup, Lincoln, the Hammers are into the next round of the EFL Cup and off to a winning start in Europe too.
Tomas Soucek scored the winning goal against the League One outfit in the midweek battle, and he also scored against Backa Topola in the Europa League last Thursday. However, last weekend, Liverpool ran out 3-1 winners over the club.

Max Lowe, Ben Osborn and Gustavo Hamer are all facing late fitness tests for this match while Oliver McBurnie can return after his one-match suspension. Daniel Jebbison and John Fleck are ruled out.
Forebet predicts a win for West Ham and for the game to see over 2.5 goals.
