On Thursday night, Newcastle humiliated Everton 4-1 with Isak almost providing one of the best assists of the Premier League season for his side's fourth goal, finished by Jacob Murphy.
The only reason this mesmerizing run and pass didn't get credited with an assist is because the ball struck James Tarkowski before finding its way to Murphy. Still, the 23-year-old Swede took possession right on the halfway line and absolutely embarrassed Ben Godfrey, Idrissa Gueye and Michael Keane to create the tap-in.
The performance was déjà vu for Toon supporters in many ways. After hitting Spurs for five goals in the opening 21 minutes on Sunday, Newcastle scored three goals in a nine-minute second-half spell on Thursday. The Geordie boys are on a bender.
The Champions League awaits for Newcastle, the Championship for Everton.
