NEWCASTLE, England (Reuters) - Leeds United wingers Raphinha and Jack Harrison secured a 2-1 win at Newcastle United on Tuesday, piling more pressure on Magpies manager Steve Bruce after the north-east club's poor Premier League run stretched to nine games without a win.

With seven defeats in those nine, the result left Newcastle 16th on 19 points from 20 games, seven points above the drop zone, while Leeds stayed 12th on 26 from 19 after ending their three-game winless streak in all competitions.
