Dwight Gayle scored in each half to clinch Newcastle a deserved 2-0 win at Leeds and send them five points clear at the top of the Sky Bet Championship.
Magpies striker Gayle gleefully pounced onto a clanger by Leeds goalkeeper Rob Green to silence the majority in a bumper Elland Road crowd with a simple tap-in and converted a superb second for his 13th goal of the season early in the second period.
Rafael Benitez's side were worthy winners, producing some fine football to carry them to an eighth straight league win and their ninth in all competitions.
