Tottenham 1-2 Newcastle: what Bruno Guimaraes said

Newcastle United captain Bruno Guimaraes has been speaking to BBC Radio Newcastle following the Magpies’ 2-1 win: “A great result. Before the game we said that if we could win today, we would be fourth in the league. We did our job, now let’s support Crystal Palace in their match today against Chelsea. I’m very happy for everyone.

“I think we are in a very good rotation at the moment and we are in a very good moment. I am happy with the result.

“I think that after a team scores a goal at the beginning, it is always important for us to score after two or three minutes so that it is at a key moment in the game. The first goal restored our confidence.

“We could have avoided the first goal, but there was no problem because we changed things. But if we don’t concede first (in the future), then everything will be fine!”

About his teammate Alexander Isak: “For me today he is the best striker in the world. Nobody has played better than him. I am happy for him, he is a very good guy and a very good player. I hope he can continue scoring and helping.” us.”
