It ended Newcastle 1 Manchester City 1.
Eddie Howe’s side faced their challenges in this sixth Premier League match of the season.
Competitive throughout but United going behind to a Gvardiol goal that defected off Tonali to give Nick Pope no chances.
Newcastle United though showing great resilience and very much deserving at least a point from this match.
Gordon getting the equaliser after winning the penalty himself, a tireless performance from the former Everton winger, playing through the middle on Saturday.
Interesting to see this official Match Cam footage released by the club.
Showing behind the scenes stuff, as well as excellent match action from an alternative angle, down at pitch level.
Well worth watching the whole thing, especially the Anthony Gordon equaliser and celebrations.
