Martins on target as subdued Magpies made to struggle
Obafemi Martins’ 68th-minute strike, his 14th goal of the season, was all they had to show for a performance which at times threatened much more, but too often failed to deliver.
A 4-1 aggregate victory handed the Magpies a trip to AZ Alkmaar in the next round after the Dutch side fought back from 2-0 down on the night against Fenerbahce for a 5-5 aggregate draw and a win on away goals.
