Calvert-Lewin and Leeds bully Magpies in dominant victory

Report and free match highlights as Leeds defeat Newcastle 4-1 in the Premier League; Dominic Calvert-Lewin was the star of the show as Leeds move up to third in the Premier League table; defeat is the first for Matthias Jaissle as Newcastle boss

Leeds United maintained their unbeaten start to the Premier League campaign with a breathless 4-1 victory over Newcastle.

Both sides came into the game with five points on the board from the opening three games, but Matthias Jaissle's bubble was emphatically burst as he suffered a dramatic first defeat as Newcastle boss.

Without the electric Anthony Elanga, the visitors offered much less of a threat and could not handle the relentless press from the home side, led by the imperious Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

Leeds felt slighted when Matias Fernandez-Pardo, making his first start for his new club, avoided punishment for an alleged 'handball' inside the penalty area. That was soon forgotten as the hosts' dominance soon paid off.

There was an element of luck to their first, as Ao Tanaka's shot deflected off two Newcastle defenders with the last touch coming off Lewis Miley to wrong-foot Lukas Hornicek.

That then led to the Calvert-Lewin show truly beginning. The striker thought he had his eighth career goal against the Magpies with a bullet header three minutes later. However, replays showed the ball had last come off team-mate Jayden Bogle, meaning he had to settle for the assist.

The Leeds No 9 wasn't to be denied his next goal, bulldozing his way into the penalty area before calmly slotting home a third before the break. The floodgates remained firmly open after half-time, with Noah Okafor adding a fourth - and the pick of the bunch. The forward produced a delightful weak-foot volley on the bounce, sending it arrowing into the bottom corner.

Bazoumana Toure grabbed a late consolation, but it did little to take the gloss off a thoroughly one-sided display. The result leaves Leeds sitting third at the end of the fourth round of fixtures - their highest position at this stage of a season since the 2000/01 campaign.

2: NO PENALTY! Fernandez-Pardo avoids conceding spot-kick for alleged ‘handball.’

14: SAVE! Hornicek makes a top drawer save from close range to deny Bogle.

25: SAVE! Bogle again threatens as he stings the palms of Hornicek with vicious attempt.

32: GOAL! Tanaka’s deflected strike comes off TWO Newcastle players before beating Hornicek.

35: GOAL! Two in three minutes as Bogle gets last touch from Calvert-Lewin's bullet header.
