Back-to-back defeats for Matthias Jaissle's Newcastle, who produced another chaotic display sorely lacking in quality against Aston Villa.
Newcastle United suffered a 1-0 home defeat against Aston Villa at St James' Park, marking back-to-back losses for manager Matthias Jaissle. The decisive moment came in the 36th minute when Johan Manzambi scored for the visitors, converting after finding space between Newcastle defenders inside the penalty area.
The defeat set an unwanted club record of 16 consecutive home matches without a clean sheet for Newcastle. Unai Emery's side held on to secure the victory as the hosts managed only a single shot on target throughout the match, prompting boos from the home supporters at both half-time and the final whistle.
