Newcastle United eased some of the pressure on manager Steve Bruce on Saturday after earning an impressive 2-0 Premier League win at Everton.

England striker Callum Wilson scored both goals of the game, the first a stunning glancing header in the 73rd minute. He doubled his and his team's tally with a low finish deep in added time.

The result provides Newcastle and Bruce three valuable points after a run of five successive defeats, while the defeat is a setback to Everton's top four hopes.
