“THE STADIUM OF DELIGHT!”
A midfield change of Lewis Miley, Jacob Murphy and Jacob Ramsey, replaced Joelinton, Sandro Tonali and Anthony Elanga, who dropped to the subs bench, made aall the difference!
The forst half woz nowt to write home aboot, apart from Anthony Gordon’s goal, which he hit from inside the box from a pinpoint Jacob Murphy cross at The Leazes End in the 32nd minute!
Bruno and Dan Burn π₯ aalso had efforts which went close to scorin, az did Benficaa, who shaved the Gallowgate post to give us a wake up caall!
The main action happened in the 2nd half az we pounded the Gallowgate goal and after a tactical substitution in the 63rd minute when Harvey Barnes entered the fray, replacing Jacob Murphy, we doubled wor lead, when an outrageous lang throw from The Pope in The Toon goal, foond Barnes who hit a sweet shot across goal, which went in off the far post to the relief of the vast majority of the crowd, just 7 minutes after he had come on!
The 2,500 Benficaa fans in level 7 of The Leazes End had been in brilliant voice up til this point, but fell silent after this goal!
It woz soon 3-0 when Barnes again ran through from a Gordon pass in the 83rd minute and hiz shot went through legs of Trubin in the visitors goal, to give The Toon an unassailable lead!
More chances went a beggin through Willock, Botman, Joelinton and Burn, but we had to settle for 3-0 which moved us up to 7th place in the 36 team Champions Leegue table, for the time being at least, above the likes of Real Madrid, Barcelona, Juventus and LIVAAPOOL! (Who aall play tooneet, so expect NUFC to drop to at least 10th)
Happy days are here again in wor see saw season!
Attendance: 52,073 (2,500 from the Portuguese capital)π΅πΉ
*It torned oot to be a very lang day, az wor lass had to be at The Freeman hospital in the east end of The Toon for ‘7.30am bells π’
She didn’t get oot til ‘5.20pm bells π’ and by this time the rush hour traffic woz horrendous!
It took 1 hour to drive yem (normally 20 minutes!) and by the time as dumped mee canny tranny and got to the tornstiles, just half an hour to kick off, with massive queues to get in!
Thankfully aa made the kick off, just in time to hear The Champions Leegue music blasting from the loudspeakers—and the rest, az they say, iz history! ⬇️
