Howe nombr\u00f3 al mismo equipo que hab\u00eda vencido al Chelsea 1-0 en su \u00faltimo partido de liga antes del par\u00f3n internacional, con Wood en lugar de Callum Wilson en el ataque. Fue el internacional de Nueva Zelanda quien marc\u00f3 el primer gol desde el punto de penalti despu\u00e9s de que el torpe desaf\u00edo de Daniel Amartey sobre Joelinton dentro del \u00e1rea le diera al United un regalo de Navidad tard\u00edo, que Wood acept\u00f3 con gratitud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Y solo cinco minutos despu\u00e9s, eran las dos, y los hombres de Howe se estaban desbocando. Magn\u00edfica jugada de los visitantes, que comenzaron dentro de su campo con una pirueta sin esfuerzo de Bruno Guimar\u00e3es. Recort\u00f3 un pase a Kieran Trippier en el flanco derecho, quien a su vez levant\u00f3 un pase a la l\u00ednea para que Almir\u00f3n lo persiguiera. El paraguayo cort\u00f3 hacia adentro, hizo un doblete con el Guimar\u00e3es antes de deslizarse por la l\u00ednea de fondo de los Foxes y marcar su noveno gol de la temporada con facilidad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lo m\u00e1s cerca que estuvo un Leicester inconexo en el primer per\u00edodo fue un esfuerzo tentativo de Patson Daka que fue bloqueado por Nick Pope, y cuando lleg\u00f3 el tercero de los Magpies justo despu\u00e9s de la media hora, amenazaba con convertirse en una derrota. El tiro de esquina de Trippier desde la derecha fue recibido por Joelinton, cuyo contundente cabezazo hacia abajo ampli\u00f3 su ventaja y dej\u00f3 a sus oponentes, que hab\u00edan ganado cuatro de cinco en la liga antes del encuentro del lunes, sin confianza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wood cort\u00f3 un corte de Joe Willock justo antes del descanso y, aunque los anfitriones introdujeron a Jamie Vardy para la segunda mitad, plantearon pocas dudas sobre la defensa del United. Sven Botman lanz\u00f3 una volea mientras Newcastle buscaba el cuarto y aunque no hubo la misma intensidad en los segundos 45, los hombres de Howe no corr\u00edan peligro de ceder su ventaja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despu\u00e9s de que Dan Burn, sin darse cuenta, casi le dio a Leicester un consuelo despu\u00e9s de que un despeje lo golpe\u00f3 y se desvi\u00f3 por poco, otro sustituto de los Foxes, Kelechi Iheanacho, dispar\u00f3 desde la distancia, pero su esfuerzo fue demasiado alto para molestar a Pope. El equipo de Rodgers tard\u00f3 hasta los \u00faltimos ocho minutos en lograr un esfuerzo de gol y cuando lo hicieron, a trav\u00e9s de Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, fue manso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aunque Pope tuvo que aferrarse a un esfuerzo tard\u00edo de Wilfred Ndidi y luego bajar para negar un fuera de juego de Vardy, su hoja limpia nunca estuvo realmente en duda, ya que Newcastle termin\u00f3 una tarde c\u00f3moda con tres puntos significativos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>nufc.co.uk<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attendance:32185Referee:Jarred Gillett<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Goals from Chris Wood, Miguel Almir\u00f3n and Joelinton gave Newcastle United a 3-0 win at Leicester City on Boxing day &#8211; and lifted the Magpies into second place in the Premier League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a rapid start from Eddie Howe&#8217;s side at the King Power Stadium as Wood netted from the spot with two minutes on the clock, with winger Almir\u00f3n making two five minutes later with a beautifully-worked goal to stun the hosts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nufc.co.uk\/teams\/first-team\/joelinton\/\">Joelinton<\/a>&#8216;s bullet header effectively made sure of the points before the break as the Magpies gave their travelling supporters plenty of Christmas cheer, with the victory seeing United leapfrog reigning champions Manchester City to move into second spot behind leaders Arsenal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It took just 90 seconds for Newcastle to pick up where they left off in the Premier League last month. Howe named the same side that had beaten Chelsea 1-0 in their final league outing before the international break, with Wood brought in for&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nufc.co.uk\/teams\/first-team\/callum-wilson\/\">Callum Wilson<\/a>&nbsp;in attack. It was the New Zealand international who hammered home the opener from the spot after Daniel Amartey&#8217;s clumsy challenge on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nufc.co.uk\/teams\/first-team\/joelinton\/\">Joelinton<\/a>&nbsp;inside the box handed United a belated Christmas gift, which Wood gratefully accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And just five minutes later, it was two, and Howe&#8217;s men were running riot. It was a terrific move from the visitors, which started inside their own half with an effortless pirouette from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nufc.co.uk\/teams\/first-team\/bruno-guimaraes\/\">Bruno Guimar\u00e3es<\/a>. He clipped a pass out to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nufc.co.uk\/teams\/first-team\/kieran-trippier\/\">Kieran Trippier<\/a>&nbsp;on the right flank, who in turn lifted a pass down the line for Almir\u00f3n to chase. The Paraguayan cut inside, played a one-two with the onrushing Guimar\u00e3es before gliding through the Foxes&#8217; backline and slotting home his ninth goal of the season with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The closest a disjointed Leicester got in the first period was a tentative poked effort from Patson Daka which was blocked by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nufc.co.uk\/teams\/first-team\/nick-pope\/\">Nick Pope<\/a>, and by the time the Magpies&#8217; third arrived just after the half hour it was threatening to become a rout. Trippier&#8217;s corner from the right was met by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nufc.co.uk\/teams\/first-team\/joelinton\/\">Joelinton<\/a>, whose thumping downward header extended their advantage and left their opponents &#8211; who had won four out of five in the league going into Monday&#8217;s encounter &#8211; looking bereft of confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wood clipped a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nufc.co.uk\/teams\/first-team\/joe-willock\/\">Joe Willock<\/a>&nbsp;cutback just over before the break and though the hosts introduced Jamie Vardy for the second half, they posed few questions of United&#8217;s defence.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nufc.co.uk\/teams\/first-team\/sven-botman\/\">Sven Botman<\/a>&nbsp;volleyed over as Newcastle looked for a fourth and while there wasn&#8217;t quite the same intensity in the second 45, Howe&#8217;s men were in no danger of surrendering their advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nufc.co.uk\/matches\/first-team\/2022-23\/leicester-city-v-newcastle-united\/\">Dan Burn<\/a>&nbsp;had inadvertently almost provided Leicester with a consolation after when a clearance struck him and drifted just wide, another Foxes substitute, Kelechi Iheanacho, let fly from distance, but his effort was far too high to trouble Pope. It took until the final eight minutes for Rodgers&#8217; side to muster an effort on goal and when they did &#8211; through Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall &#8211; it was tame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Though Pope did have to hold onto a late Wilfred Ndidi effort and then get down to deny an offside Vardy, his clean sheet was never really in too much doubt as Newcastle ended a comfortable afternoon with a significant three points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leicester City 0 Newcastle United 3 Los goles de Chris Wood, Miguel Almir\u00f3n y Joelinton le dieron al Newcastle United una victoria por 3-0 sobre el Leicester City el Boxing Day y elevaron a los Magpies al segundo lugar de la Premier League.
