The listed scores, 1-1 and 2-1, combine to the 3-2 final score. Newcastle's winning margin was one goal, with the two clubs sharing five goals across the match. That makes this a tight result on the scoreboard rather than a decisive multi-goal win. The central takeaway is clear: Newcastle ended the EFL Cup match ahead, and West Brom finished one goal behind.
The stats in the scoreline point to a five-goal game and a narrow Newcastle advantage. The highlights are led by the final result itself: Newcastle won 3-2. As a match summary, the outcome is straightforward even if the margin was close. Newcastle's three goals were enough to take the win; West Brom's two kept the score tight but did not change the final result.
