Aleksandar Mitrovic absolutely drills his 1st Newcastle home goal

Newcastle exploded with six goals on Sunday, and this might have been the best of the lot.

The first half of the Premier League match between Newcastle and Norwich City on Sunday was insane, standing at 3-2 going into the break with end-to-end action the entire time. The second half started a bit slower, though -- that is, until Aleksandar Mitrovic had his way.

The 21-year-old Serbian has generally been playing quite well for Newcastle since signing in the summer, but had yet to actually score at home in the Premier League. Well, he has now, and what a way to open your account -- lovely chested control and hit like a piledriver to beat the goalkeeper to the far corner. Newcastle fans will be hoping that this is the first of many, many goals for Mitrovic at St. James’ Park.
