Newcastle 4 -1 PSG

at St James’ Park

NO-ONE wanted to leave. At the end of a raucous, emotional night, the Newcastle supporters stood and cheered as one to celebrate an emphatic victory in their first home Champions League match for 20 years.

When Newcastle were drawn into group F it was given the obligatory “Group of Death” tag. Yet, as Luis Enrique acknowledged before this game, the Toon Army were the pot-four team everyone wanted to avoid. This result showed why.
