Title: Newcastle, Liverpool Share Points In Thriller
Post by: Folami David on Oct 19, 2013, 09:10 PM
Liverpool twice came from behind to force a 2-2 draw against Newcastle United that took them top of the Premier League table on Saturday.
.
Liverpool moved on to 17 points from eight matches and will stay top at least until Arsenal play Norwich City at the Emirates later on Saturday.
.
Newcastle had to play the whole of the second half at St James' Park with 10 men after the 42nd-minute sending-off of defender Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa.
.
They had gone ahead in the 23rd minute when Yohan Cabye scored with an unstoppable, swerving, 25- metre shot that gave Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet no chance.
.
The last time this fixture ended goalless was in 1974 and the scoring continued when Steven Gerrard pulled Liverpool level from the penalty spot after France international Yanga-Mbiwa had been sent off in the 40th minute for hauling down Luis Suarez.
.
The Uruguayan striker was in with a scoring chance when the Frenchman grabbed his shoulder and pulled him to the ground, earning an immediate red card from referee Andre Marriner.

It's funny how no one said anything about Liverpool's draw, all i see is people making fun of Manchester United
