Magpies had got over a sluggish start to take the lead through two goals from Alexander Isak

While Newcastle could take satisfaction from recovering from a wretched first half by responding with a rapid double from Alexander Isak, West Ham finished as the happier side after rescuing a point thanks to a brilliant late equaliser from Mohammed Kudus.
It became clear from the outset that Newcastle would not find it easy to summon the intensity that overwhelmed PSG. West Ham, buoyed by their victory over Freiburg in the Europa League, had complete faith in their suffocating tactics and ran the first half after going ahead with the game’s first attack of any note.Premier League round-up: Raheem Sterling stars as Chelsea beat Burnley
Paquetá's vision left Newcastle reeling. Nick Pope flew off his line, hoping to mop up the danger, and was stranded when Emerson got there first. A touch from the Italy international took him round Pope and, though the angle was tight, support was arriving in the middle. Soucek, once again given freedom to push forward by David Moyes, was on his own in the six-yard box and was not going to pass up the chance to collect his fourth goal in six games.
Compact and physical, West Ham were giving little away. Edson Álvarez was performing his duties in defensive midfield, though Newcastle edged back into the contest as half-time approached. The quick feet of Isak gave them hope up front, as did Miguel Almirón sending a rasping shot inches wide from 20 yards. Dan Burn also went close with a glancing header.
The pressure was growing, as was West Ham’s irritation with the refereeing. They seethed when Paquetá, whose influence on the left had increased, was penalised for a foul, but they failed to switch on when Kieran Trippier delivered the free-kick. Álvarez’s desperate attempt at a clearing header fell straight to Isak, who scored with a powerful shot.
