Alexander Isak has demonstrated his proficiency in scoring goals during his tenure as a Newcastle United player, despite his relatively short time at the club and the occurrence of several injuries.
Isak has demonstrated himself as one of the most exceptional forwards in the current Premier League, particularly when he is in good physical condition. Furthermore, some of his goals have been really impressive.
During an interview with NUFCTV, Isak expressed his belief that Joe Willock’s assist for his goal in the 6-1 victory against Tottenham at St James’ Park was the most remarkable one he has gotten since joining Newcastle.
Isak selects his preferred assist.
Since his transfer from Real Sociedad in 2022, Isak has developed a strong camaraderie and friendship with Willock. However, due to their injuries this season, they have seldom had the opportunity to play beside each other.
The victory over Tottenham, during which Newcastle scored five goals within the first 21 minutes, stands out as the most remarkable match of the entire campaign in an extraordinary season last year.
Several remarkable goals were scored throughout the game, but maybe the most remarkable was when Willock, positioned on the halfway line, skillfully utilized the outer edge of his boot to execute a precise curling pass that traversed the entire pitch and landed exactly on the trajectory of Isak.
The Swedish forward then managed to direct his shot into the goal, marking his first goal of the match and Newcastle’s fourth goal within an only 19 minutes. This remarkable occurrence at St James’ Park was noteworthy for multiple reasons.
Isak described Willock’s assist as undoubtedly the best one. “I would like to acquire another one of the same kind before the season concludes.”
