It ended Newcastle 1 Manchester City 1.

An excellent disciplined performance from Eddie Howe’s side as they more than held their own.

Gvardiol opened the scoring on 35 minutes cutting in from Man City’s left side and his shot appearing to take a slight deflection past Nick Pope.

United fully deserving the equaliser when Anthony Gordon was played through by Bruno Guimaraes and then brought down by Ederson.

Gordon getting to his feet and showing great bottle as he coolly sent the keeper the wrong way.

A draw was a fair result but Newcastle United had some really good situations that they failed to take advantage of.

Looking at the individuals in black and white, interesting to get an independent perspective on how this played out.

Whoscored ratings use data from every single Premier League match, over 200 raw statistics included in the automated calculation of a player’s rating, weighted according to their influence within the game.

Six players who started the match received a rating higher than 7.0, three for each team.

Pointing towards how even the match was.

Gvardiol (7.7) getting the very highest MOTM rating, then followed by Man City teammates Grealish (7.6) and Gundogan (7.1).

Whilst the three on the Newcastle United side of things were Gordon (7.4), Bruno (7.4) and Joelinton (7.1).

Though to be honest, I find the ratings overall are very much on the skinny side, as it was a pretty good game.

For NUFC, I though Dan Burn (6.7) was superb against Haaland and deserved far higher. Others as well, I have no idea how the automated ratings gave Tonali only 6.3, as he was excellent.
