Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes scored a brilliant goal and won a penalty as his side beat Nottingham Forest 2-0 at home in the Premier League on Sunday to heap even more pressure on under-fire boss Ange Postecoglou.
After a scrappy goalless first half, Guimaraes gave his side the lead in the 58th minute with a superb strike, picking up a pass from Dan Burn outside the box and curling it beyond the despairing dive of Matz Sels in the Forest goal.
Sels pulled off a string of fine saves to keep his side in it, but there was little he could do when Elliot Anderson scythed down Guimaraes in the 82nd minute to concede a penalty, and striker Nick Woltemade fired home confidently from the spot.
The win lifts Newcastle to 11th spot in the standings on nine points while Postecoglou's Forest, who are without a win in seven games in all competitions, are 17th with five points from their seven league games this season, one point above the drop zone.
