Newcastle boss Eddie Howe was delighted with their 2-0 win against Burnley.
Miguel Almiron and Alexander Isak (pen) struck for the Magpies.
Howe later said: "Probably a shaky 10 minutes at the start. After that we were good, dominated the game, limited them, created chances and probably could have put the game to bed sooner than we did but very pleased to win again.
"That's what we have this season, players who are capable of producing moments like that. Sometimes in difficult games you need that moment of quality and it came from Miggy who has played really well the last few weeks. After there were chances and you need that second goal. We are grateful for the penalty and Alex's good finish.
"I don't think there were any moments where they really looked like scoring. It was a very tough game and I'm very pleased to get over the line and win."
On another clean sheet, he added: "It's huge and the team as a whole deserve great credit. We have seen a huge improvement in our defending in recent weeks."
