Ah man, such a sickener so late. Probably repeating what others have said, but yes, would have taken a point pre-match, and despite being under the cosh all 2nd half, to then have *that* penalty given against us, 6mins into the added time, is just a bit shit.

Well played to all the lads out there tonight. Unfair to single some out, but Pope, Miley and Tino stand outs for me. Yes we rode our luck at times, but we were also holding on, until the ref stepped in.

Just hope for the best on th efinal match day. Hope we can beat Milan, and see how the other results go.

Nerves more than fatigue? Really!? Almiron was limping from the first half still. Isak was running on empty and probably shouldn't be playing 60 mins nevermind 90. Miley is a 17 year old kid who's never played anywhere near a game as intense as this. Gordon ran his bollocks off as usual.

When we had our energy first half we more than matched them.

If we had a bench there then we could have done the same 2nd half

 

Yeah, really. I felt the stage got to us a bit, of course fatigue was a massive issue but if you think we weren't nervous in the second half I don't know what to tell you.

 

It's hardly a criticism, we were away in the parc des princes defending a slender lead, we dropped back and were hitting it "anywhere will do" for much of the last 20 minutes. A more experienced team would've tried to get their foot on the ball and slow the tempo, especially when fatigued. This is something that will come with experience in the competition, and again, it's not a criticism of the performance.

Honestly would rather go out altogether than drop to the second tier tourney and just have the same thing happen against Liverpool like

 

This is so loud in my mind. So fucking loud.

Remember though, if pope hadn’t saved some shots, or if PSG had hit the target, they would have won anyway, so it’s a fair result. We should have just kept the ball and scored a few more goals. I’m sure Howe will learn that in future games, whilst he’s bringing 5 subs on every 15 minutes.

 

 

We were bottom of the league 2 years ago, chill.

I had a feeling before the game that we might get hammered tbf. And they should have stuck a fair few chances away but for Pope / bit of luck here and there.

 

A draw is a good result, but less so in the context of what happened in that 8 mins of gifted PSG time. 

 

But surely we can hold our heads high tonight man! Remember when we were basically written off after the group draw? Dortmund aside, we've surprised a few. 

 

And if it ends in the Europa League, I'll still be excited for that too. This season is still alive and burning brightly. Get our injured players back and see how we roll from there. 

 

Well done NUFC, we sail on into uncharted waters!

2 years ago we were down and out, now PSG are scaping a draw in the 98th minute at home to us.

 

Our club man.

 

Proud to be a Geordie.

We were robbed and cheated out of a victory against PSG.  I never imagined that I would type those words a few years back.
