Newcastle manager Glenn Roeder:
"The players took out their disappointment from last
week's defeat at Charlton on what is a very good Tottenham side. Three
one did not do out first-half performance justice. People say there is
nothing to play for but there are points and pride - and for our fans we
must play this way for the rest of the season." |

Match Report: |

I said
in my match preview 'who knows with our beloved Newcastle United we
could just as easily win or lose 3 nil depending on which team turns up
on the day'.
No April
fools today as the good Newcastle United turned up to beat Spurs 3v1 at
St James' Park on Saturday with all three goals in a fantastic 1st half
performance.
Lee
Bowyer got us off to the best possible start with a goal after 65
seconds. Excellent work by Charles N'Zogbia
down the left who crossed perfectly for an advancing Bowyer to force the
ball home.

Robbie
Keane levelled after 19 minutes with a well taken header from an Anton
Lennon left wing cross but they weren't level for long as
Shola Amoebi
scored a brave goal after 25 minutes. Amoebi
followed up on a Nobby Solano shot and put
his body on the line to beat a diving Paul Robinson and Anthony Gardner
to smack the ball into the back of the net.
Five
minutes later Edgar Davids unnecessarily
pushed Bowyer over in the box when the ball was going out of play to
give away a penalty. Up stepped Alan Shearer who calmly sent
Robsinson the wrong way by smashed the
ball into the left hand side of the net.
Spurs
had some chances with Keane hitting the crossbar just before half time
and also the outside of the post in the
second but there best chance fell to Jermaine
Jenas in the second half. An awful defensive
header by Robbie Elliott let JJ in on goal who then rounded Shay Given
to have an open goal but somehow he hit his left foot shot into the side
netting much to the delight of the home fans. JJ had been booed all game
and this was the icing on the cake of an awful return to the goldfish
bowl.
Michael
Dawson was sent off after 65 minutes after getting a second yellow card
for holding back Shearer who was throw on goal. This effetely killed the
game off as we played out a much needed win with relative ease.
A good three points then for the boys who now can
hopefully take this form to the smog filled stadium next Sunday.
Like the last home game our main man at St James's Park
was their to report on all the action so to read
