Newcastle are currently playing Leicester at the King Power Stadium and are 3-0 down, with Ricardo having opened the scoring for the hosts.
The Portuguese fullback took the ball from just inside Newcastle’s half and drifted into space on the edge of the box before finding the bottom corner with his left foot.

READ NEWCASTLE VERDICT
Another poor performance from Newcastle as they failed to make an impression in defence or attack. Leicester completely controlled the play, even before Isaac Hayden’s sending off, and Kasper Schmeichel was untested in goal.
Steve Bruce needs to find an answer to Newcastle’s problems quickly or he could start to feel the pressure. They remain in the bottom three and have only won one of their first seven matches.
