Remote Stream

Two finishes from Chicharito and a classy goal by Felipe Anderson secured West Ham United's biggest win away to Newcastle United in over 20 years on this day in 2018!

The brace by the Mexican striker, followed by Anderson's late effort, earned Manuel Pellegrini's Irons a deserved 3-0 victory at St James' Park. 

Chicharito grabbed his first on eleven minutes, getting in front of Federico Fernandez to poke in Robert Snodgrass' cross, before adding his second just after the hour-mark with a well-taken effort.

The comprehensive win was secured with the final kick of the game, as Felipe Anderson capped off an exceptional display by slotting in under the body of goalkeeper Martin Dubravka.
