Miguel Almiron took just seven minutes to score again for Newcastle in their return to the Premier League.
The Paraguayan star, who has been superb for the Magpies all season, was on hand to net their second against Leicester.
Almiron was on hand to net once again for Newcastle
Almiron played a lovely little one two with teammate Bruno Guimaraes before racing into the box and slotting past Danny Ward.
It was a slick goal from Eddie Howe’s side, and number nine for the season for one of their star players.
Only Erling Haaland, Harry Kane and Ivan Toney have scored more in the Premier League than Almiron so far this season.
Such a goal helped Newcastle go 3-0 up heading into the break, with Chris Wood and Joelinton also netting.
Former Scotland striker Chris Iwelumo told talkSPORT: “It’s an excellent finish. He started it, he finished it.
“Excellent goal, the weight of pass was excellent. His first touch, brilliant and then the finish speaks for itself.”
