Sammy on song as Toon fight back

Club Brugge 2 Newcastle 2

The 20-year-old was a key figure as the Magpies cancelled out Club Brugge’s early two-goal lead to claim a point at the Jan Breydel Stadion and ease closer to qualification for the knockout stage.

It was his 43rd-minute pass which 31-year-old Shola converted two minutes after Vurnon Anita had dragged the visitors back into the game on an eventful evening in Flanders, and Pardew was delighted with his contribution.
