""This is a massive, massive win for us,""
""The lads performed very well. Hard-fought, disciplined, we could have scored more, but we'll take the win however it came.""
""[Wolves] put us under pressure in the first five minutes, but after that we got control of the game. A great cross from Murphy and great to see Nick score,""
""He is a very good finisher, very clever. He can get a lot of goals with his head too.""
Newcastle defeated Wolves 1-0 at St James' Park thanks to Nick Woltemade's 29th-minute header from Jacob Murphy's cross. Woltemade, 23, joined from Stuttgart in a big-money move and became the third German to score on a Premier League debut after Jürgen Klinsmann and Ilkay Gündoğan. The result ended a five-game winless streak in the league and extended Newcastle's unbeaten run against Wolves to eight top-flight matches (W6 D2), including four consecutive wins. Woltemade won eight duels, the most for Newcastle, and the team delivered a disciplined, hard-fought performance praised by manager Eddie Howe.
