Evan Ferguson's first career hat trick helped Brighton cap a memorable week with a 3-1 win over Newcastle that inflicted a third straight English Premier League defeat on the visitor on Saturday.
The 18-year-old Irish striker curled home his second goal from range to add to a simple first-half finish. Ferguson completed his treble with the aid of a hefty deflection off Fabian Schar.
Newcastle lost only five league games in all of last season but this loss came on the heels of defeats to Manchester City and Liverpool — which staged a late comeback at Anfield last weekend with 10 men. But Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope was punished for his mistakes in the 27th when he sent a clearance straight to a Brighton player. Pope had already made one save from the ensuing counterattack when he spilled Billy Gilmour’s stinging long-range effort and Ferguson was on hand to slot home the rebound.
