Magpies punish 10-man Fulham after Jimenez's red card

Martin Dubravka 6/10

NEWCASTLE RATINGS. Saved routinely from Iwobi in first half. Claimed crosses confidently when required to do so. Reuters

Tino Livramento 7/10

Thought he was getting a run out in his preferred right-back slot in the absence of Trippier but was shifted to left-back after Schar went off. Enterprising display, got forward whenever possible and put in several quality crosses. AFPShow less

Jamaal Lascelles 6/10

Got away with an elbow on Jimenez in the prelude to the red card. Otherwise untroubled by 10-man Fulham. AFP

Fabian Schar 5/10

Limped out of the action early with a hamstring injury picked up as he carried the ball out of defence. Getty Images

Dan Burn 7/10

Moved from left-back to centre-back after Schar's injury. Recovered well to put off Iwobi as he ran clear in the first half. Occasionally sloppy in possession but finished game on a high with goal number three. AFPShow less

Sean Longstaff 6/10

Failed to gather Livramento's cross just before the break as he looked well-placed to break the deadlock. AFP

Bruno Guimaraes 9/10

Pulled the strings. Passing range impressive, especially when shifting focus of attacks. Gorgeous flick created a chance just before the interval. Run and persistence created opener for Miley. Gorgeous cross for Burn's goal. AFPShow less

Joelinton 5/10

Lots of industry from the fans' favourite but then played Iwobi in on goal with careless pass. Went off injured midway through first half. PA

Miguel Almiron 7/10

Box of tricks on the right wing. Followed in well to get his goal. Reuters

Callum Wilson 5/10

One flicked header on target, tried to dive for a penalty as Livramento crossed for Longstaff late in the first half. Set up a shooting chance for Gordon. AFP

Anthony Gordon 7/10

Slow start but livened up as game progressed. Unlucky to hit the bar following some slick control in the box. Went close on a couple of occasions, subbed late for a well-earned rest. Getty Images

Emil Krafth 6/10

NEWCASTLE SUBS. Krafth (on for Schar, 14'): Steady at right back. Got forward at times and put in a couple of decent crosses. Getty Images

Lewis Miley 8/10

(On for Joelinton, 31'): Added lots of energy to the Newcastle midfield when he came on and was rewarded with his first goal for the club. Getty Images

Sven Botman N/A

Botman (on for Burn, 84'): N/A, Ritchie (on for Livramento, 84'): N/A, Hall (on for Gordon, 84'): N/A. PA

Timothy Castagne 5/10

Difficult day up against the livewire Gordon. Subbed after an hour. Getty Images

Tosin Adarabioyo 6/10

Coped fairly comfortably with Wilson and defended wholeheartedly for his out-manned side. Getty Images

Issa Diop 6/10

One super piece of defensive work to get across on the full stretch to thwart Almiron. AFP

Antonee Robinson 6/10

Couple of lung-busting surges forward to relieve the pressure on his team. Reuters

Tom Cairney 5/10

Thankless task after the red card with his job becoming all about shape and discipline. AFP

Harry Wilson 6/10

Worked hard but with scant reward. Getty Images

Joao Palhinha 6/10

Did his best to protect his defence after the red card. Picked up his customary booking. AFP

Andreas Pereira 6/10

One beautiful pass early on to release Iwobi but saw his attacking instincts curbed by the red card. Subbed. AFP

Alex Iwobi 6/10

Started on the left but shifted into the middle after Jimenez was dismissed. Willing runner but might have done better when through on goal in the first half. Reuters

Raul Jimenez 4/10

Took a nasty elbow in the face from Lascelles and lost his head. Challenge on Longstaff was reckless and unnecessary but he did pull out. Yellow card was probably just about okay but couldn't really complain about the upgrade. Getty ImagesShow less

Rodrigo Muniz 5/10

FULHAM SUBS - Muniz (on for Castagne, 61'): 5, Tete (On for Pereira, 61'): 5, Lukic (on for Cairney, 76'): N/A, Reed (on for Palhinha, 76'): N/A, De Cordova-Reid (On for Iwobi, 77'): N/A

Newcastle United overpowered 10-man Fulham with a 3-0 win at St James' Park on Saturday but at the cost of further injuries to their heavily depleted squad.

Both Fabian Schar and Joelinton were forced off in the first half as manager Eddie Howe saw two more first-team regulars head towards the treatment room.

However, it was Joelinton's replacement, the academy graduate Lewis Miley, who made the all-important breakthrough as he capitalised on some good work from the impressive Bruno Guimaraes to fire in his first ever senior goal.

By that point Fulham had already been reduced to 10 men after a moment of madness from Raul Jimenez. The striker took an elbow in the face from Jamaal Lascelles and decided to take his frustrations out on Sean Longstaff.

The Mexican recklessly piled into the Newcastle midfielder and saw a yellow card upgraded to a red by the VAR.

The hosts added further goals in the second half through Miguel Almiron and Dan Burn to run out clear and deserved winners.

The 17-year-old Miley said of his first goal: "What a moment it was for me and my family. They were in the stand. Great feeling to see the ball in the back of the net. Hopefully I can score lots more. I haven't checked my phone yet but I'm sure everyone will be buzzing for us."

His teammate Guimaraes added: "Sometimes I can't believe he's 17. He's unbelievable. We're very proud of him."
