Brighton 0 Newcastle 0 - Instant NUFC fan / writer reaction to Saturday's battling draw nufc
Newcastle United battling the heat and a very decent Brighton side, coming away with a gutsy point.“We’ll take a point away to a team that have regularly given us a footballing masterclass since we were promoted together.Jamie Smith:“Very disjointed performance with consistent stray passes suggesting this 4th kit was actually more of a clash than some of the others would be.
“Some fine defensive work preserving a point we need to be grateful for, under the circumstances, after two goal line clearances and a fine performance from, you know, Nick Pope.”“Defence dug in and earned us a clean sheet, assisted by an impressive Nick Pope.“A point after such a lacklustre display is a good result.“Firstly, Brighton will probably be a top eight side this season“Much work to do if we want to compete with Man City next week.
“Our new custodian, who somehow had his name trending globally on Twitter on Friday, was the stand out performer as a shot shy Toon battled hard but failed to create as much as fans would have liked. “I think most would have taken a point here and it makes the start to the season look decent enough compared to previous years.“The final two weeks of the window are huge.“We take the point and move on today.
“Brighton arrived off the back of a stunning win at Man Utd and were, at the very least least, shut out by Newcastle in their first home game of the season.”“A very good point considering the chances we had, or should that be, didn’t have, compared to the chances Brighton had.
