Opinion

Wednesday’s match ended Newcastle 4 Leeds 3.

Ahead of each match we ask one of our writers to come up with three positives and three negatives following the game.

Plenty to talk about after this Leeds one!

Wow, what a match!!

On this occasion it is ‘Matt Busby said to Joe Harvey…’:

POSITIVES

Comeback Kings

Late, late drama at St James Park as Harvey Barnes registered the latest ever winning goal since the Premier League bothered recording these things (90 +12), even eclipsing the point in the game that Liverpool scored between the same set of goalposts at the Leazes End back in August.

United had to come back three times before taking the lead and that’s the first time we’ve turned a losing position into a win this season.

That felt so good. Cue pandemonium all around the stadium. What a finale!

Perseverance

“Keep right on to the end of the road” sang Harry Lauder and this Newcastle team did just that, their never say die attitude proving that a one goal deficit going into injury time can be converted into a win if guts, determination and perseverance are on show.

Captain fantastic Bruno...
