Can you say “Newcastle hero” has a great quote for “Liverpool” after an exciting draw, cutting points from the Premier League leader
Newcastle United defender Fabian Schar was interviewed after the English Premier League match in which he was the hero by scoring a goal to equalize the leader Liverpool 3-3 in the 90th minute, sharing 1 point each in a match that both teams fought very excitingly.
Newcastle took the lead twice through Alexander Isak in the 35th minute and Anthony Gordon in the 62nd minute, but Liverpool equalised both times through Curtis Jones in the 50th minute and Mohamed Salah in the 68th minute, before Salah scored to put the Reds ahead 3-2 in the 83rd minute.
But Newcastle pulled one back to make it 3-3 through Fabian Schar in the final minute.
After Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher made a mistake when he came out to cut off Bruno Guimaraes’ free-kick.
However, Fabian Schar said of Newcastle, who shared a point with Liverpool, who had won their previous seven games in a row: “We deserved at least a point. We created a lot of chances. And We conceded a goal that we shouldn’t have, but we were the better team.”
“And We deserved and wanted more. We always believe. It was a crazy game and at least we didn’t lose. To be honest, I tried to stretch my legs. I just tried to get the ball and direct it on target. Of course, it was a great goal.”
“They punished us for our mistakes tonight. We have to be consistent to move up the rankings.”
After this game, Newcastle has 20 points and is ranked 10th on the Premier League table. Liverpool still has 35 points and is still the leader, but Chelsea and Arsenal, ranked 2nd and 3rd, have reduced the gap to 7 points.
