Match Report

Magpies boss Glenn Roeder said after the victory: "At times it wasn't pretty, but that mustn't detract from the fact it was a fantastic victory.

"Considering we were a goal behind to a team that's just beaten Real Madrid and Deportivo, to come back and win the game just shows you the character and skill in the side."
