Huge surprise in the FA Cup: Newcastle United were eliminated in the third round of the traditional English football cup competition.
In the 1: 2 (0: 0) against the third division Sheffield Wednesday, the third in the Premier League embarrassed himself to the bone on Saturday.
Midfielder Josh Windass scored twice for the blatant outsider (52′, 65′), Bruno Guimaraes’ goal (69′) was not enough for United. Newcastle, reinforced with transfers worth millions after being taken over by Saudi investors, had previously gone 15 competitive games in a row.
Last Tuesday, Eddie Howe’s team held off leaders Arsenal 0-0.
