Liverpool Edge Newcastle 3-2 with 16-Year-Old Ngumoha’s 100th-Minute Winner

Liverpool secured a dramatic 3-2 victory over Newcastle United at St James' Park, with 16-year-old Rio Ngumoha scoring a stunning stoppage-time winner in the 100th minute. Liverpool took the lead through Ryan Gravenberch and Hugo Ekitike, but Newcastle, reduced to 10 men after Anthony Gordon's red card, fought back with goals from Bruno Guimarães and Will Osula. Despite Newcastle's spirited comeback, Ngumoha's late goal sealed the win, making him the youngest scorer in Liverpool's history. The match was charged with intensity, partly due to Alexander Isak's ongoing transfer saga and tensions surrounding player movements, adding to the atmosphere. Newcastle faced additional challenges with multiple injury concerns during the game, while Liverpool's strong squad depth, bolstered by recent signings like Ekitike, was evident. The result highlighted Liverpool's resilience and continued strong start to the Premier League campaign, contrasting with Newcastle's struggles amid adversity.
