Newcastle United's Aleksandar Mitrovic elated with first strike at St James' Park

Newcastle United's Aleksandar Mitrovic admits that he was delighted to notch his first goal in front of his home crowd at St James' Park in their 6-2 win over Norwich.

Newcastle United striker Aleksandar Mitrovic has revealed that he was elated to score his first goal at St James' Park in his side's crushing 6-2 victory over Norwich City.

The 21-year-old notched an important strike in the match as his effort in the second half provided the Magpies with a two-goal cushion, which allowed them to see out their first win of the campaign.

Mitrovic told the club's official website: "It is always an amazing feeling to score a goal but even more so here at St James' Park. I can't put it into words properly - you need to score goals to feel it.

"I have said before that goals are like a drug. If you score one, you want more and more, and that is how I feel now. I will keep working hard to score more goals.

"It has taken me a few games to do it but I am happy and proud to score and hear the noise from the crowd, celebrating my goal. This is why I chose this league and this club. Football is amazing here and there are so many goals. It is really interesting to watch and to play in, and I love being here at Newcastle."

Steve McClaren's men moved up to 18th place in the Premier League as a result of their win.
