Newcastle’s Champions League dreams over but Howe vows lessons learned

NEWCASTLE: “It’s not beyond our wildest dreams, because we did have wild dreams.” Famous words, spoken by the erudite, late, great Sir Bobby Robson.

He knew Newcastle United like no other — and, in many ways, his words rang true on a disappointing night for the Magpies. Fan group Wor Flags revealed an amazing pre-match display, reliving the former Magpies’ manager’s quote.

And the 11 players on the park did just that — they dreamed big, aimed their shot for the stars, but fell sadly short in the cruelest of fashions.

With just 31 minutes left, and with Paris Saint-Germain level at Borussia Dortmund, Newcastle were second in the group and heading to the last 16 knockout rounds.
