Howe focuses on positives after rare clean sheet in draw at Everton
The Straits Times|October 07, 2024
LONDON Eddie Howe praised Newcastle United's defensive display and rare away clean sheet after the 0-0 English Premier League draw at Everton on Oct 5, as a missed Anthony Gordon penalty denied the visitors all three points.

The Magpies created the better chances and were awarded a firsthalf spot kick, but Gordon's poor effort against his former side was saved by fellow England international Jordan Pickford.

It was only their third clean sheet in 32 away Premier League games and Howe chose to focus on that positive.

"I have to credit the players because it is a difficult environment to play in and it is a much better defensive display from us too. Big steps forward," the Newcastle boss said.

"We stood up to the physical test and were technically very good. I think we are capable of more and we have some tough fixtures to come.
