Isak hails Newcastle midfield after 2-goal performance

Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak hailed their midfield after victory over Tottenham.

Isak scored twice in the 4-0 win on Saturday.

He later said: "It's really fun to play football here at the moment, especially when we hit the day like we did today. When the fans are as good as they always are when we play at home, then we are really good.

"We talked a lot about the fact that we had to be sharp in our passes today, as Tottenham stand tall with their defensive chain.

"That way we could hit them in depth, and the passes ended up just sitting in the cupboard today,"
