A Newcastle fan celebrated his side’s 3-2 victory over Everton in stunning fashion as he travelled 110 miles to his friend’s house to shout “3-2!”
Newcastle United secured a stunning turnaround in the game against Everton last weekend, as the side won 3-2 after being 2-0 down at the first half.
The Magpies scored three goals within 19 minutes in the second half, with Ayoze Perez scoring a brace.
With this win, Newcastle United are now 13th in the Premier League table, while Everton slipped out of the top-10, at 11th.
Perez scored the equalizer in the game in the 81st minute, and netted in the winner three minutes later.
Justifiably, Newcastle fans were upbeat about the result. However, one fan took the celebrations to extreme measures, as he drove 110 miles to his friend’s house who supports Everton.

Dane admitted that he texted his friend, but he ignored him. And so, Dane resorted to this extreme step.
Everton manager Marco Silva, meanwhile, was unhappy with the referee’s decisions in the game.
“We didn’t expect what happened, but it’s football.” Silva said. “Even in the first 15 to 20 minutes in the second half we had counter-attacks – we had to kill the game in that moment.
“I cannot understand – five Newcastle players were in the same line and Rondon was offside.”
How Twitter reacted..
Since August 2004 – 12 different men have been in charge of Newcastle United.
Only one of those has managed to win five consecutive league games at St James’ Park.
