Four months on from Gullit's nightmare start to life at St James' Park, Liverpool scored another four goals against his side as they fought back to win a remarkable game at Anfield.

Nolberto Solano struck to give the Magpies a first-half lead, but just a minute later future Reds midfielder Dietmar Hamann was sent off for his second bookable offence.

However, that didn't stop Andreas Andersson doubling Newcastle's lead early in the second half, but then from leading 2-0 with 23 minutes to go, the visitors collapsed and conceded four times, with Owen and Karl-Heinz Riedle grabbing two goals each to seal a home win.
