Bournemouth Increases Pressure on Howe

The defeat has placed immense pressure on Newcastle manager Eddie Howe, who has now lost four straight matches and has never beaten his former club.

Despite the mounting crisis, Howe insisted his 'belief in myself can't waver' as the team sits in a disappointing 14th place.

Bournemouth, meanwhile, showed no signs of distraction following manager Andoni Iraola's recent decision to leave the club at the end of the season.

The Magpies now face a difficult summer of rebuilding as their European ambitions appear to have vanished.
