Newcastle took a colossal step towards securing Champions League football
next season at St.James' Park on Sunday afternoon, scoring goals in the
opening and closing stages of the game to defeat a ten man Chelsea side.
Less than two minutes had gone when Sandro Tonali flicked home at the Leazes
End, before Bruno Guimaraes hoisted his shot into the Gallowgate net in the
final seconds of normal time to seal victory and move his side into third
spot.
On identical points and goal difference with the visitors at kick-off, United
failed to build on that early lead but were handed a further advantage when a
yellow card shown to Nicolas Jackson for bludgeoning Sven Botman was upgraded
to a red in the 35th minute after a pitchside VAR review.
Botman was one of two changes to the starting line-up that drew 1-1 at
Brighton; brought into a three man defence at the expense of Kieran Trippier
while Anthony Gordon replaced Joe Willock - neither of the two players omitted
making the bench due to fitness concerns.
The hosts were unable to press home their numerical superiority before the
break and found Chelsea a rather different prospect after the interval, Cole
Palmer pushing into the attack and his colleagues pressing Jacob Murphy on the
right hand side of the home defence.
That was exacerbated by the replacement of Botman by Miley and after an
uncomfortable 10 minutes, Emil Krafth appeared from the bench to take over at
right back - Gordon's exit allowing Harvey Barnes switch flanks to the left
and Murphy be reinstated on the opposite wing.
A home crowd who had roared their heroes on to the field grew increasingly
tense as United dropped deeper and deeper and conceded a worrying number of
corner kicks.
Nick Pope denied both Marc Cucurella and Enzo Fernandez, while forgettable
shooting and poor passing left United unable to exploit occasional sights of
goal at the other end.
Bruno
wastefully attempted to break the net with a first time volley from almost in
the six yard box before Chelsea substitute Reece
James botched a presentable header.
Daylight was belatedly put between the sides though - on both the field and
the league table - in the last seconds of normal time, Bruno atoning for his
earlier profligacy with a shot from the edge of the box that flicked off a
defender before looping over the helpless Robert Sanchez.
That clinching goal was scored from not far off the spot that Alan Shearer had
memorably netted against the same opponents back in April 2004 - and equally
celebrated - although we will admit to concerns that Bruno would get a second
yellow after uprooting the Strawberry corner flag and raising it to the
heavens in celebration.
The basis for this deserved victory came from United's fast start and while
the red card aided our cause, referee John Brooks struggled at times to deal
with the cowardly antics of the visiting side, led by pantomime villain
Cucurella.
Given some of what went on here and the furious response of Fabian Schar to
one sly dig in his direction, the absence of Joelinton may actually have been
a blessing - tempting as it was to imagine him wading in to seek vengeance....
Newcastle's Champions League aspirations then received a further boost after
Leicester City took a point from their visit to the City Ground - a result
that leaves Nottingham Forest four points behind the black and whites.
The weekend's fixtures concluded with Arsenal sharing four goals at Anfield,
leaving them just two points clear of United ahead of next Sunday's visit to
the Emirates.
Ex-Magpie Mikel Merino will miss that reunion with his old team though,
following his dismissal at Liverpool.
The prospect of finishing as runners-up is an enticing one, but regardless of
what happens at Arsenal, the task of staying in the top five will be
accomplished by defeating Everton at Gallowgate on the final day of the
season.

Full time saw SJP echo to Blur's "Parklife", swiftly
followed by "Chelsea Dagger". It's fair to say that
Newcastle supporters left with a sense of enormous wellbeing....
Missing from the squad due to injury, Joelinton was present to cheer on his
colleagues, resplendent in a 1995/96 home shirt complete with "Shearer
9" decals.
Following last weekend's Rugby League Magic Weekend, the efforts of Wor
Flags resulted in a fine spectacle to welcome the teams to the
field, crucially boosting the volume levels to offset the tragically early
KO time.
Thanks to everyone who entered our score prediction competition, to win a

There were multiple correct entries meaning that a random draw was

Boyles.
Mark's score prediction was also correct....
Missing from his seat at SJP was Mark Allison aka Run Geordie Run
as he continues his coast to coast trek across the USA from New York to
California.
Setting
off on May 1st, he's now completed over 300 miles of his 3,200 mile

Pennsylvania - and spotting a rather timely street sign.

Eddie Howe:
"The first half we were really,
really good. The sending-off changed the game, and with the scoreline it
became a tricky second half for us mentally. The message was to attack but
on the pitch it felt different. Chelsea changed and tweaked things and made
it difficult for us tactically, so congratulations to them, but we hung in
there.
"The second half was stressful. I
was pleased with how we defended. Nick (Pope) made two magnificent
saves for us and you can’t forget the part he played today.
"We always look at the opposition
and see what the best system would be. We also lost Kieran (Trippier)
and Joe Willock so we had to think about the balance of the team. It was a
mixture of both things (to play with a back three).
"Having three centre-halves helped
us defensively but we still looked a threat the other way. That’s the key
thing – some of our attacking play was really good. We just needed the
second goal at that stage.
"The sending-off changed the game. With the scoreline as it was,
it was a tricky second half for us mentally because we wanted to go and
attack, and that was the message.
"It was
anxious in the second half, that was an interesting 45 minutes. We played
really well in the first half, we were electric, but a mixture of things -
the psychology of the game, the scoreline, 10 v 11 - it made it a difficult
second half. I thought Chelsea did really well but we hung in there.
"The
way we play has to fit the culture of the club and what the supporters want.
They want fast, attacking, aggressive football; that’s perfect for me. I
love to try to give them what they want.
"The start today was amazing – the atmosphere was everything we hoped
it would be and then the players delivered. The
crowd were up for the game, the atmosphere was amazing.
"I think the challenge today was the early kick-off. Could we find the
voice and the intense atmosphere that we needed? It is very different to
kicking off later. I thought the supporters were magnificent - maybe the
free pint helped!
"We're on the road to what we want to do this season, but there's still
a lot of work to do and two tough fixtures to play.
"The size of the prize is huge, the players are aware of that.
There was a worry when we won the (Carabao Cup) trophy that there
would be a negative consequence of that, but I think it actually gave us
confidence.
"A massive win for us, and we knew that, of course, before the game,
we knew the importance. It's so tight, that will put us in a stronger
position, but it's still very tight and two games to keep our focus and to
try and get as many points as we can."
On the red card offence:
"I thought
initially my gut reaction was that's a sending off because I could sort of
see that Jackson wasn't looking at the ball, he was looking at the man and I
think that always puts you in a vulnerable position, especially if you make
contact with your elbow like he did.
"I've just seen it when I was being interviewed on the TV there, and
for me, my opinion hasn't changed. I do think it's a red.
"I don’t want to see red cards in games unless it’s clear
and obvious. The visual cues are there. I’m sure he hasn’t meant to
elbow him but it doesn’t look great."
On Sven Botman:
"He was slightly
uncomfortable in the half time break with a knee problem. I don't think it's
serious. He was obviously OK to carry on but he was feeling something.
"With that in mind, and the fact I thought we needed to change
tactically, we made a change and brought Lewie (Miley) on.
"It was a big moment for Lewie, and
I thought he handled that situation, with a lot of pressure on him, really,
really well. I was really pleased with him.”
On Emil Krafth:
"I thought Emil did really well. It was a difficult time for any
defender to come on to the pitch with so much at stake. He used his vast
experience and delivered a strong performance."
On the absent Trippier and Willock:
"Kieran has a calf problem and Joe has a thigh problem - they're
both similar injuries.
"We don’t think they’re serious, but we don't know if we'll see
them again this season.
"We’d love to get them back fit, and able to play a
part, but at this moment in time, I’ve not really got any idea whether or
not that’s possible.”
On the absent Joelinton:
"When you miss a player like Joelinton, he’s such an infectious
character in so many different ways. When he’s missing, you’re looking
for someone to step up.
"It’s the same with Kieran (Trippier). He’s got so much
experience and is very vocal, and you miss his vocal presence when he’s
not there and not playing. I thought the players that came in did elevate
us.
"I thought we played really well in that first half. I changed the
system, and that changes a lot of things for us, but I thought the players’
tactical understanding was brilliant.”

Newcastle U18s concluded their
U18 Premier League
season on Saturday by sharing six goals with North Section winners Manchester
City at a sun-soaked Little Benton.
Seeking their 22nd successive league win, the Citizens led at half time
thanks to Christian Dunbar-McDonald, who danced through the home defence in
the eighth minute.
The young Magpies equalised with a fine team worked goal in the 56th
minute: Matheos Ferreira crossing from the right side of the area and Henry Johnson
knocking it down for Kacey Wooster to notch his tenth
of the season.
And three minutes later United led when Wooster's shot from the left
was
palmed out by Max Hudson for Matheos Ferreira to stroke home
from close range.
The visitors levelled on 69 minute when Finlay Gorman's right wing corner was headed in
unopposed by Leke Drake and substitute Gorman then beat Aidan Harris
from distance ten minutes later to restore City's lead.
Beaten 1-7 in the corresponding game earlier in the season, Newcastle's late
pressure was rewarded with an equaliser in the final seconds of normal time,
Matty Taylor driving through a crowd of
players from inside of the box.
Team: Harris, Shahar, Cogdon, Johnson, Epia, Finneran,
Ferreira, Munda, Wooster (Brayson 77), O'Donovan (Taylor 77), Sanusi
(Fitzgerald 66).
Subs n/u: Jones, Durrant.
Booked: O'Donovan, Finneran, Cogdon.
Chris Moore's side ended the season fifth in the table, three points ahead of the mackems
who lost 1-3 at Manchester United in their final game on Saturday.
City's season continues when they meet South Section winners Aston Villa
with the national title at stake - Villa defeated them 3-1 in the FA Youth
Cup Final on Monday.

Celtic (a) on sale now
Newcastle have confirmed a second pre-season kickabout, at
Scottish Champions Celtic on Saturday July 19th.
That's a 3pm kick-off and the Magpies
have been given 7,200 places.
As was the case for March's Wembley visit,
away travel groups won't be in use and seats are individually
selected from a seating plan. That was visible on a smartphone but
some desktop users report that they struggled to see it.
It's also worth repeating that more than one
section is on sale, but in order to see the others, you need to
click on the arrow to the right of the screen.
NB: some seats in areas 118 and 119 in the
usual away corner have restricted views due to a pillar. These look
to be included in the 1,200 that NUFC will be selling for a slightly
cheaper price after the full price ones sell out.
NUFC state that this game will be excluded
from the usual away ticket transfer scheme.
Prices: £25 adults, over 65s £17, 13-16s
£17, U13s £12.
(There's no relevant scheduled rail work
that weekend).
This will be United's first game in the East
end of Glasgow since a 1-2 loss in August 2004. That was the third
visit of the Premier League era, following a 0-2 reverse in July
1999 and a 1-1 draw on a red-hot day in August 1995.
The most recent meeting of the two sides
took place at SJP during August 2007, ending in a 4-1 win for the
Magpies.
For Eddie Howe it's a belated opportunity to
lead a side out at Parkhead, having rejected the chance to become
Celtic boss during 2021 - supposedly after failing to reach an
agreement on the appointment of his backroom staff.

With two games to play, Willem II are condemned to a bottom three finish,
either in the relegation playoff place that they currently occupy or one of the two
automatic relegation spots.
Max Thompson
(Chesterfield):
The Spireites have it all to do after a 0-2 home loss to Walsall in the first
leg of their League Two Play-off semi-final on Sunday. Max remained on the
bench.
The second leg is this coming Friday.
Travis Hernes
(AaB):
A 1-3 loss away to Viborg on Sunday leaves Aabs embroiled in the Danish SuperLiga
relegation play-offs with just two games remaining.
James Huntley (Spennymoor Town):
Fitness problems inevitably meant that James wasn't in the squad for Sunday's FA Trophy
Final meeting with Aldershot at Wembley. Moors were beaten 0-3.
