Newcastle United's Dutchman Georginio Wijnaldum scored four times as the club won its first Premier League match this season at the ninth attempt by thrashing Norwich City 6-2 to climb off the bottom of the table on Sunday.

Newcastle scored more goals in 90 minutes at St. James' Park than it had managed in its previous four league matches with Ayoze Perez and Aleksandar Mitrovic also finding the net and the victory could not have come at a better time.

It was the perfect answer to the club's 6-1 defeat at Manchester City in its last match and sets it up perfectly for next week's derby at arch-rival Sunderland, which is now bottom and the only Premier League team without a win.
