‘Absolutely magic’… Ally McCoist was blown away by £40m Newcastle player despite loss tonight
Despite a frustrating result for Newcastle United tonight, Ally McCoist was blown away by the quality of one performance against AC Milan.
McCoist was covering the huge European night for and was almost lost for words when Newcastle went ahead.

As well as celebrating the role that both Anthony Gordon and Tino Livramento played, McCoist thought Joelinton’s strike was outstanding.
The pundit enjoyed all of the intricacies 🌠of the goal, which were celebrated by the🐈 strike that followed.
McCoist said: “I’ll tell you what, it all comes from Gordon going into th🐠at pocket because Calabria can’t go with him. What a hit. What a hit. Absolutely magic.
“So what happens ♎there is Anthony Gordon can sense it, he goes into the pocket, he picks it up and hits it wide 🍷and Joelinton just fires it, smashes it into the top corner.
“What a goal. It’s just a brilliant goal all round. But very🔯 clever play down the left hand side ꧒involving Gordon and Livramento.”
Of course, it is a hu𝓰ge shame that the goal 💯didn’t turn out to mean for Eddie Howe’s team.

The p𝓰undit also went on to discuss the improvement💝 that the Brazilian had made over the last year or so as well.
McCoist thought Joelinton was unrecognisable from the faltering striker that existed at St. James’ Park before Howe’s arrival.

And although Newc꧙astle are now contending with the disappointment of not qualifying tonight, they can be proud of their efforts across the campaign.
It was a great journey, one filled w🐈ith excellent moments for Howe’s team, and one that delineates why they need to qualify again t🏅his season.
But perhaps the failure to fallꦚ i𒉰nto the Europa League as a consolation will hurt just as much as the Champions League exit tonight.
That being said, Joelinton w🎐as outstanding against AC Milan, and he’ll be hoping this is just the 🌼start of such Newcastle nights.
Of course, injuries were a big factor in Newcastle coming up slightly short at the🅰 conclusion of the group stage.
And the clu📖b are now being linked with ওa £14m arrival in January.
