Newcastle United 1-1 Barcelona (10/03/26) | post-match from pg. 43


Recommended Posts

We were the better team after going 1 up tbh, it felt like the Liverpool game at SJP where they scored with their last kick of the game after doing nowt for the previous 45 minutes. I think it's actual voodoo magic shit.

Still in the tie, and it guarantees that Newcastle won't just try and sit on a lead (which we're utterly shite at [emoji38]) in the second leg.

 

Agreed, only positive from this.

Fuck me, i understand it because we conceded the late goal, but the amount of criticism in here after we battered Barcelona is mental. 

 

We are turning into a bunch of entitled moany cunts, ffs that's what we should never do. I don't want us to be Chelsea, Man Utd, Liverpool, basically the scumbag six supporters. 

 

If you watched that game and thought, right, lets have a go because it's not good enough, please just fuck the fuck off.

we are not likely to get a Barcelona performance as poor as that at their place. The opportunity was there tonight to take a 2 goal lead there and we were right to go for it.

 

There’s no mitigating for dumb individual errors like that. We’re as likely to make those mistakes if we sit back as we are if we go for a second this season. The approach wasn’t the issue.

 

Agree entirely. 1-0 never likely to be enough over there and we had them on the ropes. That wasn't the issue as you say. 

 

Completely shit the bed in that last passage of play + terrible ref gone over the four minutes.

Up a height and raging, which is not how I'd expected to feel before kick off. Most involved I've been with a game all season. Nice to feel something Tbf...even if it's pure anger and disappointment.

Last minute goals have cost us numerous times this year.  These are the 90+ goals we have conceded off the top of my head.  All at home too.

 

Liverpool -1

Arsenal -1

Spurs -2

Barcelona 


We’ve conceded a daft amount of goals just before the added time board goes up too.
 

You’d think we’d learn to tighten up and run down the clock. But we do the same shit again and again and again.

Keeper looks decent tbf. 

 

I wish we could find a finish to the good work we do in the approach play. Could have scored a couple with a well timed pass. 

 

It wasnt really a comment on their keeper, more that I think he can be a half decent source of goals for us if he had more license/confidence.

Fantastic performance but we are so unprofessional at the end of games. We had multiple opportunities to take the ball into the corner and waste time  but wenkept trying to attack.

Surely have to play a full second 11 at the weekend?

 

Hall needs a breather for sure. I'd rotate the lot personally [emoji38] Give Wissa all the minutes.

Yep. It always felt like the ref was going to cost us, and this time it was the play until the opposition scores variety. 

 

It summed up our season nicely.
