Manchester City vs. New Castle? summary, goals and result: dramatic draw at St James’ Park

Another drama-filled performance in Sunday’s Premier League cinema. Not enough with what was last week’s billboard in the Chelsea-Tottenham, by the way, was the Newcastle United and Manchester City which had the spectators of St. James Park and the world on edge.

The match, which closed Sunday’s week 3 blind in England, started with the Celestes quickly celebrating in fraction 5 through İlkay Gündoğan. Nonetheless, the visiting siege could be checked by the natives who, in eleven minutes, turned the tables. First Miguel Almirón, practically from the ground, equalized at 28 and then Callum Wilson put the black and white advantage at 39.

The first few minutes of the second half were for the hosts, who were holding on against a beaten City on the pitch. A frontal foul for Newcastle was superbly accounted for by Kieran Trippier to Anderson’s right slash, to start enjoying the three points. This was also the former Liverpool man’s first goal since February.

But instead of being a barrage, this goal woke up the sleeping giant, who crushed the home team and started the comeback party: Erling Holland clamped down on a rebound play in Nick Pope’s box to get closer on the board and four minutes later, with a surgical pass from Kevin De Bruyne, Portugal’s Bernardo Silva closed the game at 3-3.

Newcastle regrouped again and tried to fight the fire the citizens, enduring to the last moment, being the first draw they get from Pep Guardiola’s troops since Matchday 14 of 2019-20when they tied 2-2.

Manchester are now second in the table, below Surprise at Arsenal (nine points)while those directed by Eddie Howe are sixth with five units.
