Ex-Socceroos boss given rapturous welcome by crowd of 78,419 but young gun Garang Kuol helps Magpies win 5-4 on penalties

James Maddison’s goal in the 31st minute, after a sustained period of dominance from Spurs, broke the deadlock before Alexander Isak responded just before the break on Wednesday night. Australian young gun Garang Kuol made his Newcastle debut in the 71st minute and with the scores locked at 1-1 at full-time, the game went straight to penalties.

Ange Postecoglou reacts during the post-season friendly match between Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United at the MCG.“I got the bus ride back to the hotel and that’ll be it, mate, and then we get going. It never really stops, the reality of it is,” he said. Perhaps the only person in the MCG to upstage Postecoglou was South Korea’s Son Heung-min. The star forward received a raucous applause when named and there were squeals of delight whenever he touched the ball during his hour on the park.
