Newcastle United produced a fantastic performance against Paris Saint-Germain but a stoppage-time penalty from Kylian Mbappe earned the French side a 1-1 draw on Tuesday evening. Despite a quick start from PSG, it was Newcastle who would strike first in the French capital. Gianluigi Donnarumma parried Miguel Almiron's effort into the path of Alexander Isak, with the 24-year-old hammering home from close range to give the Magpies the lead heading into the break . PSG produced plenty of opportunities in the second half but needed a controversial 98th-minute penalty from Mbappe to deny Newcastle a memorable victory in Paris. How the game unfolded Eddie Howe named an unchanged lineup from the weekend's demolition of Chelsea as injuries continue to decimate his squad, with Newcastle knowing that a defeat at the Parc des Princes would send them out of the Champions League . The Magpies almost found themselves behind early on, Mbappe's near-post flick rebuffed by the feet of Nick ...

Son Heung-min has described his relationship with Ange Postecoglou, revealing the new Tottenham manager has won the squad over with his down-to-earth manner. Postecoglou and Spurs have proved to be a good fit so far, taking 26 points from their first ten Premier League Game s of the season before disappointing losses to Chelsea and Wolves. The Greek-Australian became the first head coach to win the league's Manager of the Month award for the first three months of a single season. With Harry Kane gone and Hugo Lloris out of the first-team picture, Son was made Tottenham captain before the start of the 2023/24 campaign and has scored eight league goals so far, just two shy of his tally for the previous term. "It's crazy actually the way he [Postecoglou] speaks...the way he talks is fantastic as a human being, as a coach, it's nothing more than that. It's amazing," Son told Men in Blazers . "I'm 31 years old, I learned many things before and I felt as a...

The Mavericks are going backward after a hot start to the season, dropping three of their last four as they head off to a mini two-game road trip on the West Coast.
