Watch Newcastle's Florian Lejeune score absurd stoppage-time brace

Newcastle United haven't done their supporters any favors in their last two Premier League matches.

Days after Isaac Hayden's stoppage-time header clinched a win over Chelsea, teammate Florian Lejeune one-upped him. Lejeune scored a stoppage-time brace 102 seconds apart in order to secure a 2-2 draw against Everton at Goodison Park. 

Lejeune, a second-half substitute, cut Everton's lead to a single goal with a stunning overhead kick in the fourth minute of stoppage time. 

In the fifth minute of stoppage time, Newcastle desperately pressed for the equalizer. A loose ball in the box fell to Lejeune, and he took advantage of Everton keeper Jordan Pickford standing off his line, smashing it in for Newcastle's second. 

Thanks to Lejeune, the Magpies picked up a point and salvaged a draw. His stoppage-time brace was the first time in the club's Premier League history that they'd scored twice after the 90th minute.

This isn't the first time in recent days that Lejeune has shown he is calm under deadline pressure. Newcastle's matchday program asked him ahead of Saturday's match how he would dispose of a dead body if he only had an hour. 

He didn't need nearly that long to save Newcastle on Tuesday.
