Newcastle boss Eddie Howe, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: “I thought the players were all out on the pitch, we were getting cramp at the end. Our schedule has been relentless but I thought the performance was brilliant.
“It was a great finish from JJ. He’s getting accustomed to the team. I thought Bruno’s performance in the middle of the pitch was really strong.
“We’ve been waiting for that momentum shift for a long time this season. We just haven’t strung it together long enough this season. It’s going to be tough for the players but a great result today.
On Willock’s disallowed goal: “I really felt for Joe because it was an outstanding finish. He ran himself into the ground for me.”
