Goalless at the break, However Newcastle could have been leading if Joelinton took his chance. It was a promising first half for both team however I believe Newcastle played a bit better than Sheffield; I say this because Sheffield players were just given sloppy balls away the pace of the passes were slow and not very calculated. Newcastle had more chances however couldn’t take them. I believe Sheffield defended greatly seeing players dive to block shots was one of positive for Sheffield. I do believe it was a good first half I just want both team to bring that quality when it comes to finishing. I believe Saint-Maximan was the only player that could say he had a great first half and who knows he could end up scoring. Let’s see what the second half brings!
