Newcastle were left heartbroken in Paris after a stoppage penalty saw them draw with PSG in a critical Champions League group stage tie. The Magpies needed to avoid defeat to remain in the competition but three points would have left destiny in their hands.

The hosts were the more dominant side throughout though. They started the match in rapid fashion working the ball out to Kylian Mbappe and whipping crosses into the box. Newcastle’s defence, led by Jamaal Lascelles, was solid though and repelled the early onslaught before the attackers settled into the match.

Miguel Almiron’s effort from the right side of the box was palmed away by Gianluigi Donnarumma who only managed to tip it into the path of Alexander Isak. The forward poking home to send the visitors in front.

Things stayed that way, despite increasing pressure from the home side, until stoppage time. VAR judging that Tino Livramento had handled the ball inside the penalty area before Mbappe calmly slotting home the spot kick.

63 mins: Trippier hits the wall!

The ball deflects out for a corner though and the next set piece is swung into the middle of the box. Trippier is booed for taking a while before crossing the ball.

It’s floated into the middle but there’s a foul on a PSG defender and the referee awards them a free kick.

57 mins: Scrappy!

Nick Pope comes to the rescue again. A threaded pass from Lee comes into the box and is flicked on by Kolo Muani. It comes into space for Dembele who shoots but is quickly charged down by the Newcastle goalkeeper.

Pope stops the ball with his body but it loops into the air and falls to Mbappe whose attempted volley is scuffed away.

54 mins: PSG, lacking a bit of creativity at the minute, try to switch the play with a cross field pass over to Ousmane Dembele on the right wing.

Dembele is beaten to the ball by Tino Livramento who brings it down and releases the ball before he’s tackled. Newcastle are playing well here.

48 mins: Joelinton chips a lovely ball over to the top and gets it up to Alexander Isak. He carries the ball into the penalty area and comes up against Danilo.

The defender keeps him at bay and stops the goalscorer getting a shot away. Instead his rolls it back to Lewis Miley who tries to feed a quick pass over to Miguel Almiron but puts it too wide of the forward and PSG recover the ball.
