It looked like it would have be been a soft foul if the referee gave it against Wilson.
To add further insult to injury, Almirón made it 2-0.
The Paraguayan is in amazing form of late. He’s not been a prolific player during his time at Newcastle United, but this season he’s found his feet.
Almirón skipped past one Tottenham defender and found the bottom corner with ease.
