Newcastle United overpowered 10-man Fulham with a 3-0 win at St James' Park on Saturday but at the cost of further injuries to their heavily depleted squad.
Both Fabian Schar and Joelinton were forced off in the first half as manager Eddie Howe saw two more first-team regulars head towards the treatment room.
However, it was Joelinton's replacement, the academy graduate Lewis Miley, who made the all-important breakthrough as he capitalised on some good work from the impressive Bruno Guimaraes to fire in his first ever senior goal.
By that point Fulham had already been reduced to 10 men after a moment of madness from Raul Jimenez. The striker took an elbow in the face from Jamaal Lascelles and decided to take his frustrations out on Sean Longstaff.
The Mexican recklessly piled into the Newcastle midfielder and saw a yellow card upgraded to a red by the VAR.
The hosts added further goals in the second half through Miguel Almiron and Dan Burn to run out clear and deserved winners.
The 17-year-old Miley said of his first goal: "What a moment it was for me and my family. They were in the stand. Great feeling to see the ball in the back of the net. Hopefully I can score lots more. I haven't checked my phone yet but I'm sure everyone will be buzzing for us."
His teammate Guimaraes added: "Sometimes I can't believe he's 17. He's unbelievable. We're very proud of him."

What the law says
Micro-retirement is not a recognised concept or employment status under Federal Decree Law No. 33 of 2021 on the Regulation of Labour Relations (as amended) (UAE Labour Law). As such, it reflects a voluntary work-life balance practice, rather than a recognised legal employment category, according to Dilini Loku, senior associate for law firm Gateley Middle East.
“Some companies may offer formal sabbatical policies or career break programmes; however, beyond such arrangements, there is no automatic right or statutory entitlement to extended breaks,” she explains.
“Any leave taken beyond statutory entitlements, such as annual leave, is typically regarded as unpaid leave in accordance with Article 33 of the UAE Labour Law. While employees may legally take unpaid leave, such requests are subject to the employer’s discretion and require approval.”
If an employee resigns to pursue micro-retirement, the employment contract is terminated, and the employer is under no legal obligation to rehire the employee in the future unless specific contractual agreements are in place (such as return-to-work arrangements), which are generally uncommon, Ms Loku adds.

Key findings of Jenkins report
- Founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan al Banna, "accepted the political utility of violence"
- Views of key Muslim Brotherhood ideologue, Sayyid Qutb, have “consistently been understood” as permitting “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” and “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
- Muslim Brotherhood at all levels has repeatedly defended Hamas attacks against Israel, including the use of suicide bombers and the killing of civilians.
- Laying out the report in the House of Commons, David Cameron told MPs: "The main findings of the review support the conclusion that membership of, association with, or influence by the Muslim Brotherhood should be considered as a possible indicator of extremism."
