NEWCASTLE: Striker Alexander Isak equalised from the penalty spot to earn Newcastle United a 1-1 draw against Bournemouth in their Premier League clash on a frustrating Saturday (Sep 17) at St. James' Park.
Alexander Isak scored a second-half penalty to secure a 1-1 draw for Newcastle United at home to Bournemouth in the Premier League on Saturday. Both sides were resuming their season after last weekend’s suspension of games due to the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Ad It was a chance for Eddie Howe to face his former club Bournemouth as manager of his current side at St James’ Park, and the home side started brightest.
Five points from three games is the sort of tally which, in the right context, can result in caretaker coaches being handed more permanent managerial postings. Throw in a trio of very decent performances since Gary O’Neil took interim charge of Bournemouth in the wake of Scott Parker’s sacking and it is easy to imagine the Las Vegas-based consortium currently in advanced talks to buy the south-coast club from its current owner Maxim Demin wondering whether to stick rather than twist.

This was about as textbook as European away wins come and, for Manchester United, there were individual morsels of good news too. Erik ten Hag will be pleased with a third goal of the season for Jadon Sancho, who opened the scoring after a competent but blunt Sheriff Tiraspol had started well, while the clincher was notable in its own way. Cristiano Ronaldo is not used to waiting this long for his first goal of the season and a penalty before half-time was a mundane way to find it; he is now off the mark, though, and sits one short of 700 in his club career.
