Newcastle sinks Birmingham
LONDON: Newcastle scored its first win since the departure of striker Andy Carroll on Tuesday in the English Premier League, winning 2-0 at Birmingham with a goal in each half from Peter Lovenkrands and Leon Best.
Alan Pardew's side had picked up only two points from a possible nine since Carroll headed to Anfield.
However, Newcastle always had the upper hand over Birmingham on Tuesday, with Jose Enrique marauding effectively down the left wing and midfield duo Joey Barton and Kevin Nolan dominating the middle of the park.
The win sees Newcastle move up one spot in the table to 10th, leaving the Magpies within touching distance of a possible European spot.
The defeat left Birmingham hovering just above the drop-.
The result: Birmingham 0 lost to Newcastle 2 (Lovenkrands 2, Best 50) . — Agencies
