It's credit to Howe if they get over the line. It's not a game they are winning due to superior quality it's a game they are winning with the upper hand tactically.
And effort. I know it’s Newcastle but it’s nice to see a team with hunger and passion for a result

Handball on Lascelles. Doesn't head the ball, just controls the ball with his hand and then nudges it again with his hand, prompting an emergency reaction from the PSG defender.
Yeah seen that now

"That is amazing, Newcastle are beating Mbappe and erm.... "

That's a good one on the commentary elsewhere/BT? - PSG are woeful. Just a brand team that happen to have to Mbappe barely playing for them.

Newcastle are a very good side. It's no shock scoreline.

They were favourites to win tonight.

Going from being in the Championship not that long ago, being relegation favourites to then comfortably beating Mbappe and co in the Champions League in the space of a few years is just insane.

No wonder these fans are bouncing.

Well, that and the fact that when Jimmy five bellies is jumping, the rest of the aisle does bounce too shortly after.

Watching this game on Virgin Media, the lads in the studio were claiming PSG are much improved as a team in defence since they got rid of Neymar and Messi whom didn't track back. Will be interesting to hear what they have to say now as even under Poch they defended better.

I’m furious at enrique.
4 attacking players is the worst choice he could have made

PSG has no control without the 3rd midfielder
Ramos is useless in a game where we are pressured
And as every coach in the world, even with the most obvious result, he would not make a change early because that would confirm his mistake !!

Qatari owners the only thing that could save PSG, until then they can enjoy irrelevance.

If you truly believe you saw that series of events I'm afraid someone has slipped you some LSD.

I have a funny feeling Newcastle win the CL. They are a very good cup team.

Baffling that was, fully looked like he just whacked him
Worse than the Fulham player on Thiago Silva, doesn't even have the excuse of fighting for the ball. Just fighting :lol:

No one looks at this PSG team and fears them anymore like they would do say a couple of seasons ago when they had Messi, Neymar, Veratti and co in it. They’ve regressed, stagnated and looking like their bored with the project truth be told.

I must be high because Lascelles handled the ball twice and then the PSG had to stretch clear the ball because of how it moved after hitting his hand twice?

You're just absolving yourself from a fair Newcastle discussion if you don't see that handball.

No one feared them when they had Messi as well.

The last time they were feared was when they reached that CL final. Since they have been underwhelming team non stop.
