By Mike Collett LONDON (Reuters) - Newcastle United ended Chelsea's run of six successive wins in all competitions when they scored an upset 2-0 victory over Jose Mourinho's men in the Premier League at St James' Park on Saturday. Newcastle won with second-half goals from Frenchmen Yoan Gouffran, who scored with a stooping header after 68 minutes, and Loic Remy who swept in a curler in the 88th. Newcastle had won only once at home this season and Alan Pardew's team were looking for a much-needed victory after their 2-1 defeat by Sunderland in the Tyne-Wear derby last weekend. There was little to choose between the teams in a drab first half in the rain but Newcastle were the brighter side after the break and thoroughly deserved to take all three points.
