Anthony Gordon earns Newcastle a point against champions Manchester City

Anthony Gordon celebrated his impending new contract early as he struck from the penalty spot to deny Premier League champions Manchester City victory at Newcastle.

The England international, who revealed before kick-off that he was close to agreeing an improved deal, made no mistake from 12 yards after being brought down by keeper Ederson to cancel out Josko Gvardiol’s first-half opener and ensure it ended 1-1 in front of a crowd of 52,248 at St James’ Park.

City began life without injured midfielder Rodri in confident fashion, but for the second time in a week, had to settle for a point despite taking the lead.
