Newcastle United (Shelvey, Tripper, Tripper) are the first Premier League side to score a direct free-kick in three consecutive top-flight matches since Liverpool did so in November-December 2013 (Suarez, Gerrard, Suarez).
No player has scored more direct free-kicks in the Premier League this season than Kieran Trippier (2).
Level with James Ward-Prowse.
