Everton beat Newcastle United for the second time in four days on Monday. This time it was a 1-0 Premier League win at St James' Park.

Thierno Barry scored the only goal four minutes after halftime. Tyrique George's low shot squeezed under goalkeeper Lukas Hornicek. Barry reacted fast to poke home the loose ball.

It was Barry's fourth league goal of the season. Everton had won 3-1 at Newcastle in the Carabao Cup fourth round on Thursday.

'Not an easy thing'

Manager David Moyes called it a "great result" for his side.

Beating the same team twice in four days was "not an easy thing to do for any club," Moyes said. He praised his players for giving "everything they've got."

The win ended a three-game winless run in the league. It moved Everton up to seventh and gave the Toffees their first away league win of the season.

"So I was hoping to pick it up tonight and thankfully we did," Moyes said. "Clean sheet and got the goal that counted."

Grealish left out again

Jack Grealish was not in the squad. The club said he was "not match fit."

He had also been left out of Thursday's cup game for a breach of club discipline. Moyes said Grealish is "not available yet" but that there is "of course" a way back for him.

Grealish, 31, is on a second straight season-long loan from Manchester City. He has made six appearances for Everton this season.

Newcastle struggle

Newcastle rarely threatened. Jacob Ramsey was sent off late after two quick yellow cards. The Magpies sit 13th.

"It's also clear that I have the responsibility and I also take that as the manager of this club," Newcastle boss Matthias Jaissle said. "We need to do things better."
