(Reuters) - French winger Allan Saint-Maximin rescued a point for Newcastle United in a dramatic 3-3 draw with Brentford in the Premier League on Saturday, as new Magpies coach Eddie Howe got a glimpse of the scale of his challenge on Tyneside.

Former Bournemouth boss Howe, watching from a hotel room due to a positive COVID-19 test, will have been pleased with the tenacity of his side and their positive play - but not that they conceded three goals for the third successive home game.

"But it's so important because it is better to draw than lose, and I think the team showed good character because it is not easy to come back. We just have to keep going, stay together and try to do our best to win the next game." The visitors then went ahead after the half hour mark when Rico Henry headed in a cross from Sergi Canos. But it was Newcastle's turn to hit back, this time through Joelinton shortly before the break. The Brazilian fired in from the middle of the penalty box for his first goal of the season.

They were left to rue their profligacy as a speculative curling effort from Brentford's Frank Onyeka in the 61st minute took a wicked deflection off Lascelles and went in beyond goalkeeper Karl Darlow.
