super super performance from all angle says manager..

Dan Burn doubled the hosts’ advantage as he powered home a towering header shortly before half-time, and fellow local lad Sean Longstaff put his side into dreamland with a powerful strike that proved too hot for Donnarumma after the break.

Lucas Hernandez pulled a goal back for the visitors, who had more than 70 percent possession but registered just one shot on target, only for Fabian Schar to complete the rout in second-half stoppage-time with a long-range runner to give the hosts their first Champions League win in 20 years.

• Goalkeeper & Defence

  Nick Pope (7/10):

  Didn’t have a great deal to do despite the wealth of attacking talent PSG have at their disposal. Was perhaps a tad slow to follow the flight of a deflected ball for Hernandez’s goal but saved well from Dembele late on.

  Kieran Trippier (8/10):

  Wasn’t really troubled by arguably the world’s best player in Mbappe and beautifully set up Longstaff for Newcastle’s third of the night. He didn’t track Hernandez’s run into the box for PSG’s consolation goal but a solid outing for the right-back.

  Jamaal Lascelles (8/10):

  Was defensively solid at the back in what was a rare start for the club captain. Put his body on the line as Botman was not badly missed.

  Fabian Schar (8/10):

  Missed a glorious chance to sweep home a clever corner from Trippier when unmarked but fired just wide. Apart from that, was relatively untroubled on the night. Put the cherry on the cake with a stunning curled effort from outside the box to make it 4-1.

  Dan Burn (7/10):

  Initially struggled at times against the pacey Dembele but powered home a towering header to make it 2-0. Was isolated on occasion but still was solid enough in defence.

  Midfield

  Sean Longstaff (8/10):

  Took his goal well and helped Newcastle’s midfield get the better of PSG’s for long periods.

  Bruno Guimaraes (9/10):

  Had the wherewithal to cut out Marquinhos’ floated pass in the build-up to Newcastle’s opener and beautifully set up Burn with a dinked cross to the big defender. Never stopped running and is worth his weight in gold.

  Sandro Tonali (8/10):

  Was a real enforcer in the centre of the park. A good engine across the pitch and seemed to make the right decisions at the right time.

  Attack

  Miguel Almiron (9/10):

  Showed excellent composure to drill a first-time effort into the corner to make it 1-0. Got the better of Hernandez as well. PSG couldn’t get to grips with him for much of the night.

  Alexander Isak (8/10):

  super super performance from all angle says manager..

  Anthony Gordon (9/10):

  Continued his fine form this season with a tenacious and battling display on the left side of Newcastle’s attack. Offered something both in attack and defence.

  Subs & Manager

  Elliot Anderson (7/10):

  Looked lively when he came on and was keen to run at PSG’s shaky defence.

  Jacob Murphy (7/10):

  Put in the hard yards for his team when he came off the bench in the second half.

  Eddie Howe (9/10):

  Something of a tactical masterclass from the manager. His side outthought and outfought the visitors, their high press worked wonders, and they played intelligent football throughout.
