Wards Rafael Benitez won in the second league in England.
The final 46th round of the Championship became a triumph for Newcastle, giving a truly dramatic ending. By the last game day, Brighton was in the status of the leader of the standings, and in order to become a champion, Albion needed to beat Aston Villa in his native walls.
Newcastle for the victory in the league was not only to win at home Barnsley, but also to hope for a misfire of the competitor, which eventually happened.
Magpies easily sorted out their opponent, destroying the guests with a score of 3-0, thanks to the goals of Ayose Peres, Chancell Mbemba and Dwight Gail.
At the same time, Rafael Benitez's team received a grandiose gift from Aston Villa, which in the end of the first half equalized the score in a fight with Brighton through the efforts of Murray Glenn, and before the final whistle managed to keep a draw.
Thus, Newcastle in the final round was able to beat Albion by one point and win the victory in the Championship.
Not afraid to stay in the team after relegation to the lower league, Benitez triumphantly returns to the Premier League, once again proving that he is a high-level coach.
