Allan Saint-Maximin: Newcastle star's incredible highlights vs Man City

Allan Saint-Maximin was an absolute joy to watch as Newcastle drew 3-3 to Manchester City on Sunday.

City had taken a very early lead through Ilkay Gundogan as they threatened to ease to victory at St James’ Park.

But Saint-Maximin was never going to let that happen.

Conceding a fifth-minute goal appeared to be the catalyst for the French winger to pull out his repertoire of tricks to cause the City defence all sorts of problems.

In fact, the response was so good that the only surprise was that it took more than 20 minutes for the equaliser to arrive.

When it did, Saint-Maximin was at the heart of it as he clipped a delightful ball for Miguel Almiron to bundle home.

Ten minutes later, Saint-Maximin registered another this assist. This time, he played in Callum Wilson who took a touch before firing past Ederson.

He later won a free-kick after yet another electric run that Kieran Trippier brilliantly scored from to give Newcastle a 3-1 lead after half time.

Goals from Erling Haaland and Bernardo Silva denied the Toon Army the win.

But it was an incredible match with Saint-Maximin the best player on the pitch.

If you missed his performance – firstly we feel sorry for you. But we’ve also got a treat for you in the form of his individual highlights.

Saint-Maximin gave Kyle Walker a torrid afternoon and proved why he’s probably the most exciting player to watch in the league right now.
