The stadium.

They had one of their rare bumps in the road last season.

I had a pick off all the players.

Take the knee, this one of these special days and the football calendar and locket to make a statement.

Against, Racism and all forms of discrimination.

Both sides Courtney, tapped into a rich vein of formation success and success in terms of results.

Although there are a couple of key absentees, Motors colleague, James Madison, who's been key and Colin Wilson, who we were expecting to feature today, but he's out with illness.

There won't be too many surprises in the way they go about their business., No, I.

Don't think so.

In as you say, going into that break.

Both teams in good form, probably didn't didn't, want the break to come for them.

In that sense in the in the league.

League.

But, getting back to the League Cup and having that ability to get minutes into the legs.

I think both teams will be thankful of that and yeah, not too many changes.

I think the fact that Madison isn't playing Jewish rehaul.

It's got to be the creative spot for Leicester city today.

In.

My opinion was interesting.

Wasn't, it here, tap, Guardiola saggy, pulled the players who didn't the World Cup training, might be in better form, settle for a forward, Newcastle, United, but Danny Warden was away with whales, is alert and across to deny launched a New, Castle.

Yeah, I think he's difficult for players that haven't, played and I'm not been away to the World Cup to be able to keep those Fitness up.

Yes.

You can play friendlies, but there's nothing like match.

Practice.

Zsalynn, turn all the challenges in their chair.

Again.

It points to the starts, inside the first, 90 seconds of the match, and misjudgement by a Marty, and a penalty kick for Newcastle., And, Marty, here, I! Think he just Dives in.

You can see the look on his face.

There, there's not too much for him.

Going up to the referee, trying to plead his case, which means he probably knows.

Initially.

It's a such that almost gets away from Joel into, but he manages to get the second touch.

And yeah, take it away from a Marty who just takes his ankle on the way.

In definitely a penalty for me.

Work to take for Newcastle, went to school for Newcastle, the perfect return to action for the magpies ahead inside three minutes.

It's, a fantastic staff and Newcastle United and say Joel internet.

He was the one he was sharply was on the ball.

Yes.

His first touch wasn't great, but the second touch to win.

The palatino is What he's doing, and I like.

What Chris Wood does here.

A lot of time to think about it.

Even when the whistle goes, he waits, he steadies himself goes through his process as most penalty takers, do and then straight down., The middle was also chipping in with the vital goal.

Feature is Promenade Brazil.

In, the World Cup.

As many Newcastle fans thought he might or fell t-shirt.

This man in brilliant form before the world.

Captain.

Look at this go.

Absolutely Sensational.

That is what you call picking up, where you left off, Miguel almaguer on right.

At it with a spectacular goal., Unbelievable movement, from Newcastle United everyone.

In, this ground, the fan seemed stunned.

The, Leicester city deventer seems done., Absolutely beautiful to watch., It's, like, poetry in motion and Elmer on there is, you say, picking up where we left off.

In and finishing the move off, beautifully, and you'll see it.

Here.

It looks quite simple: initially, working down the right Newcastle.

He cuts in its the little then passed, but he keeps his move.

Running., That's, what., Then, the the passes on One Touch.

So, is so hard for any Defender to be able to pick up, but look at this, just drops it off.

Keeps his run going and then the Finish past Danny.

Ward is exquisite like a surgeon's cut through the Leicester city, defense.

They may feel they could have done better with that, but it was a thing of beauty from Newcastle United, just as the score line is two-nil up so early on and we haven't even played eight minutes.

We're only just at the halfway point to the first half that has sizzled this Boxing Day in the East Midlands.

Most of the heat provided by Newcastle United.

Tumhare Barnes, is on the move.

Should really been played.

Earlier.

She was pretty hall.

Looking for DACA.

Now Poco, plenty of Decker.

Did.

He get enough of the ball? The referees, letting Lester play on the VAR.

Peter Banks.

We'll be having a look at it.

For sure., Think.

Hope gets enough of the ball on that for me., We'll, see better from the replays, but I think Pope gets enough of the ball.

Yes.

He catches that occur.

Afterwards, I, agree.

I think that ball should have been played.

Harvey bonds, quicker.

This, a good ball through, but totally gets so much of the ball.

There.

It comes back off DACA and then great defending as well.

Worst case scenario in the ball gets cleared off the line but you'll see it.

Here.

Pope gets the ball.

It ricochets off.

DACA no way up here from Newcastle United.

Yeah, sure.

Michael was always going to be a tough act to follow, but equally it wasn't just About Danny Ward.

It's.

Now you've got a whole team in front of you, especially the defense, and he carried and shouldered, a lot of that blame when that wasn't all on him.

He ended up being the lightning rod for a lot of their inadequacies, didn't it? Thomas, getting it out of immediate Danger., we're positioning himself on the The girl Kate up before coming short.

It's, a free header.

It's, our Lenten, and it's three for Newcastle United.

Lester, undone from a set piece.

Again, a Newcastle United are running away with this on boxing day.

The celebration, there.

The, baby celebration from Joe linton's.

I must be a happy moment in his life also, but this is far too easy for a man of his stature that we know he's great in the are always spoken about: Lester cities and lack of ability to defend from set-pieces.

That's the cell.

Thanks now.

It's, far too easy for him.

It doesn't really even get a run.

On.

It's, almost a standing jump, there.

Think, it's Samara., He's looking, he's looking and throwing zone or their Lesser City for me.

I.

Don't really like that comes onto it.

Far too easy.

Joe Linton tomorrow.

He's always got a backtrack.

I'd.

Rather him be close to the man, to be able to put him off to, to be able to do something about that.

Drum.

But look at this.

Far too easy, but it's a really good header.

I must admit from Joe Linton, but I think the defending leader, a lot to be desired and there's a celebration for Less the city in the summer, the lack of signings.

Isis initial head up, wasn't the best and there's still work to do.

Fortunately, effort as well over the bar for Newcastle United, and spend Batman and Batman.

You see what he's trying to do, but he just struggles to keep it down.

But again, you watch this ball.

In.

It's, not a bad ball.

It is nothing spectacular.

But just feel that every time, the ball drops, new class of the ones first to it, looks like a double Leicester.

City change will be made, they've made Two, substitutions, already.

I.

Think Brendan Rodgers all feel at this moment.

That, you know, he's got nothing to lose.

He's got to throw the dice at it.

Now to try and get something out of this game.

Trip.

Yeah.

So, fantastic ball.

It's so inviting it was begging for Newcastle, United had, but cast on Yoda's ever.

So.

Well there to not want get head in it, but direct it away from gold, because that could have quite easily come off the side of his head and gone in the back of his own net.

Karen trippier reloading for Newcastle glanced Away by body at the near post and team effort from Joe will occur, which was routine enough.

Danny Ward., Dewsbury Hall was waiting for the Run of body.

There.

I think he wanted to play that quicker.

The way that it's set, up.

Initially for his left, foot.

I, think he just wanted to swing it.

Round., The, Corner.

First time has to take the tour.

Touch what cameras there.

That's, what it means to them to defend like that is celebrating almost like it's a God, I'm 26.

We got a seven-point gap between Newcastle, United and fifth place.

Paris.

Here not show these offside.

So even had he found the target.

Celebrations would have been short-lived less.

The city, though work it.

Well nice little ball from Paris here, but, as you can clearly see ya Cho at least a yard off side.

DD call that one enough.

Toto.

Secure as ever Nick, Pope gladly, Hold on to that ball and as this comes out and DD watches, it fall down and actually connect with it really well.

But from there.

It's got to be spectacular.

There is sizing it up against his former Club, the block from Baughman 2 elements, Gardi, alert, still alive.

That's a smashing safe from Pope, the flags up anyway, but body at his predatory, best.

Yeah.

The flag was up but Nick Pope didn't know that at the time.

It's a wonderful safe., The ball comes in and yeah.

You can see body, there's offside, but does so well to spread himself and make himself big Nick.

Pope think, eventually saves it with his right leg.

And.

As you say, yes, the flag went up, but Nick Pope didn't know that at the time.

Toward the end, trying to finish with a flourish white that you see what he was trying to do playing that ball in behind, but just over Cooks it, a huge Boxing Day show of strength.
