Robson salutes battling Magpies

Newcastle boss Sir Bobby Robson could not fault his side’s fighting display as they kept their Champions League hopes alive with a 1-0 win over Juventus.

The Magpies had not scored or gained a point in their three previous Champions League group games, but the breakthrough finally came when Andy Griffin’s shot was turned into his own net by Juve goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.
