The Hungarian international replaced Aoife Mannion in the Newcastle United Women starting line-up to face the Clarets, and despite an early yellow card she looked composed on the ball and protected her goal when called upon.

The Magpies maintained their unbeaten run in the league with a 3-0 victory thanks to goals from Kathleen McGovern and Martha Thomas, either side of an own goal from former Newcastle defender Deanna Cooper.

Németh played the full 90 minutes, and made sure to soak up the atmosphere after her first outing at St. James'.

"I couldn't stop smiling," said United's number 15. "It's such a big, historic stadium, and having the whole stand pretty much full made it such a great atmosphere.

"The fans were so loud from when we came out to warm up, which made it better, but the pitch as well was just perfect. We had so much space to play out there, which is a bit different to Gateshead, so this was an amazing day.

"Being able to play in front of so many fans was so fun, and to do it with this team and these girls was even better."

Newcastle have shipped just three goals in seven WSL2 games - three fewer than Ipswich Town, who have the next tightest defence.

That sort of solid foundation at the back sets up United to play with freedom in the final third, knowing the impressive backline they have at the back.

"Our standards are really high," Németh added. "We have a lot of players who are always ready to step in. It's a very competitive environment.

"We are all fighting for the same goal and have a lot of players ready to play, and that's how it should be.

"We want a clean sheet every week, and I think the whole team is a part of that mindset, not just the defence. But as defenders, we all have a good connection.

"We never want to let any team score against us, and that is what we work towards every week in training."
