Jermal Johnson skipped through the defence and past the keeper to score an impressive individual goal.  Later he moved  down the left to smash a shot past the keeper at close range.

Neil Danns worked hard in midfield and his goal was a penalty in off the post.

The Newcastle goals were via an experianced side versus an inexperienced defence. (ie inexperienced defending)

Good Football match unfortunate result.
