FIRST-HALF RATINGS

NICK POPE ........................................ 8

Made some important blocks as 1860 created a series of chances. Had Newcastle fans chanting “England’s number 1” after tipping away Kobylanski’s dangerous free-kick.

EMIL KRAFTH ................................. 7

A couple of good runs forward and a decent cross for Saint-maximin late in the opening period.

JAMAAL LASCELLES ................... 6

Was caught in possession a couple of times and picked up a yellow card in a tough half.

DAN BURN ....................................... 7

A steady enough performance from the big centre-back. Couldn’t get on the end of any corners.

MATT TARGETT ............................... 7

Some important early interventions from the £15million man from Villa.

JACOB MURPHY .............................. 6

Some decent plays overall. Picked out Shelvey with quick thinking from a free-kick.

JOE WILLOCK .................................. 6

Recovered from a collision after Stefan Lex tangled with him in the first half. Didn’t get on the end of anything.

JONJO SHELVEY ............................. 7

Trying to pick holes in German side’s defence. A solid workout.

ELLIOT ANDERSON ........................ 7

Lively enough and has linked up well with Saint-maximin. A decent audition in front of Eddie Howe.

ALLAN SAINT-MAXIMIN ............... 6

At least forced the keeper into a save with a back-post header. Some decent play down the left but not at his best.

CALLUM WILSON ............................ 6

Full of running but hasn’t really had a clear-cut chance. At least has 45 minutes in the tank.
