anyone watching

Newcastle United (4-2-3-1): Tim Krul; Daryl Janmaat, Mike Williamson, Jamaal Lascelles, Massadio Haidara; Vurnon Anita, Jack Colback (c); Moussa Sissoko, Siem de Jong, Gabriel Obertan; Papiss Cisse

Substitutes: Karl Darlow, Freddie Woodman, Shane Ferguson, Lubomir Satka, Steven Taylor, Gael Bigirimana, Mehdi Abeid, Georginio Wijnaldum, Rolando Aarons, Yoan Gouffran, Ayoze
Perez

 

as you would expect lots of early possesion passing the ball around
8mins gone and the first chance fell to Sissoko who,'s shot was more akin to grid iron football 10 yards over the bar

 

16mins gone and 2 corners in a row

corners to the back post still in evidence


Sarmaento's corners look a lot more threatening

 

22 mins Cisse offside when put through on goal

the game has been quite entertaining and competitive for a friendly

 

32 mins Williamson leaves a foot in resulting in a free kick 22 yards out
Krul makes good save with ball heading for top left of goal

38 mins and another great save from Krul

 

42mins and another iffy free kick awarded against Lacelles this time
another fingertip save from a corner by Tim Krul

 

Half Time 0-0

half time talk with the commentators is all about beer

 

Not that great of a first half. The commentator is convinced we sold demba ba for 50 million. Steve can't fix obertan or williamson. Lets get some subs on. Lascelles looks very solid btw all the pressure is from mike.

 

OMG the english fans must have never seen a brazilian steakhouse before. Every one just **** their pants in the side chat when a commercial came on. I woke up the GF i was laughing so hard.

 

never expected it to be great
it's what you would expect for a pre-season game
De jong looks totally lost
Sissoko looks like a pub player
Cisse, has he touched the ball
Janmaat knocking in a lot of crosses but no one on the end of any

 

Woodman on for Krul
Saylor on for Lacelles

 

GGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOaAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

47mins own goal following good cross from Haidara

Toon 1-0 up

 

50 mins goal by Republic but rightly called offside

 

52 mins and a great save from Woodman

corner cleared and knock back in
another corner and offside

 

63 mins restricting Sacramento to long range shots
another good save by woodman

64mins and Haidara is sent off for high feet catching the opposition man ??

looking at it again, a booking if anything no intention at all eyes on the ball all the time

 

67mins and the first shot on goal by Obertan straight at the keeper from 12 yards
Aarons on
Perez on
Georginio on ( I think it was him )

De Jong off
waiting to see who else went off

 

76 mins Republic player throws an elbow in the face of Colback but no card

 

78mins fooking cheating bastard ref
republic player blatant block off Aarons - no foul

Aarons playing well down the left hand

 

82mins and the ref awards a free kick for another block on Aarons
this wasn't as bad as the first

 

86 mins foul on Perez 25 yards out
shot by arghhh picture froze (twats) don't know but it went out for a corner

88 mins - another free kick and fireworks in the background wtf

90 mins - 3 mins added

92 mins - shot by Sissoko - easily saved
92 mins penalty shout for the republic waved away (never a pen despite what the commentator is saying "give us a break" )

93 mins - Full Time Toon win 1-0
