Liverpool scored two goals in the first half through Yossi Benayoun and Dirk Kuyt. A late header from Lucas made it 3. Newcastle’s Joey Barton was sent off after a bad tackle on Xabi Alonso with 11 minutes left to play.
Newcastle are now three points adrift of Hull City who occupy the last spot above the drop zone.
