The Venezuela international frontman struck twice on Saturday as the Magpies added another three points to those they claimed against Watford last weekend with a win over Bournemouth.

Newcastle's match-winner Salomon Rondon has warned his team-mates that Newcastle will have to scrap tooth and nail for every Premier League point. 

The Venezuela international frontman struck twice on Saturday as Benitez' side added another three points to those they claimed against Watford last weekend with a 2-1 win over Bournemouth.

He told 'NUFC TV': "We know Watford in the last game, they were doing really, really well in the league, the same as Bournemouth.

"We know this league is difficult, this league is a high level. You have to be ready to fight in every game. We were ready to fight against Bournemouth, we know what we need in the league.

"But the most important thing is we got the three points."

He continued: "When you are coming back from an injury, you want to play, you want to get fit quickly. The confidence the manager has put in my, and the supporters, the Newcastle team, it's a pressure for a striker.

"Injuries are part of football, but now with these goals, the confidence is going up and I will just keep working."
