Newcastle United midfielder Sandro Tonali admitted he intended to cross for a team-mate rather than shoot himself. And was lucky to score the winner as they edged past Brentford 2-1. Alexander Isak fired the Magpies into the lead
in first-half stoppage time, although they were denied a second-half penalty but Tonali swung the ball from the right wing under the crossbar and past Mark Flekken in the 74th minute.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if Sandro shot intentionally,” said Eddie Howe after the result at St James’ Park which moved his side, เล่นเกมคาสิโน UFABET ทันสมัย ฝากถอนง่าย who celebrated their Carabao Cup triumph, up to fifth in the Premier League.
“I’ve seen Sandro practising his shots from that angle for a few weeks and the one thing I will say is he can shoot the ball like no other. “
When I saw Sandro shoot, I was worried that our keeper might hurt his wrist. He hits it with such force. He has the ability to score goals and I think he will continue to do that. “
It happened today in a crucial moment of the game because it was so close and we needed a goal. We had a tough game. And an important victory of the season,”
the 24-year-old Italian midfielder explained himself. “I’ll be honest with you, it was 70 per cent a cross and 30 per cent a shot. “
In the end it was a good shot, the weight was perfect, so it was a difficult moment to deal with. I was also lucky because the opposition goalkeeper was not in front of the goal.”
