Spurs spoil Newcastle's Saudi party

The Hindu  

Newcastle's new dawn under the ownership of the Saudi sovereign wealth fund got off to a disappointing start as Tottenham Hotspur silenced St James' Park with a 3-2 win on Sunday. Expectations on Tyneside are high for a huge injection of funding by the Saudi Public Investment Fund to transform Newcastle's fortunes on the field. A jubilant atmosphere was matched by the perfect start for the home side when Callum Wilson headed home Javier Manquillo's cross inside two minutes. Spurs have had a far from ideal start to the season under new boss Nuno Espirito Santo but in Harry Kane and Son Heung-min they have the star quality Newcastle hope to have in years to come.
