Newcastle and Wolves faced off in a thrilling Premier League encounter at St. James Park that kept fans in suspense. The game was a classic example of how a team's fortunes can change within minutes in soccer. While Newcastle started the game in a dominant fashion and took an early lead, the Wolves came back with great desire and intent after the break. The first goal of the match came in the 26th minute when Newcastle's A. Isak struck the goal from close range. D. Podance received a yellow card shortly before the half-time whistle, which reflected their frustration on the field. At the beginning of the second half, Wolves made a substitution: A.
