Liverpool started brightly at St James Park today, a poor clearance from the Newcastle goal-tender goal-keeper, Jermaine Pennant cross to Craig Bellamy…..and Bang.
Unfortunately referee Mark Halsey decided to continue the game. For another 82 minutes – plus stoppage time!
Seriously though, this game was all about woeful finishing from the reds – we should have been 3 or 4 up at half time. Newcastle scored late in the first half thanks to some poor goalkeeping, this time from Reina, and in the second half Nobby Solano scored from the spot to all but end our chances of finishing in the top two.
