Ramsdale the shootout hero as Newcastle edge out Bournemouth in FA Cup thriller
"The on-loan Southampton keeper saved from Evanilson, Alex Jimenez and Bafode Diakite to seal a 7-6 shootout win after a pulsating encounter had ended 3-3 after 120 minutes on a bitterly cold afternoon. Marcus Tavernier had taken the tie to penalties with an equaliser in the second minute of stoppage time at the end of extra time seconds after Harvey Barnes thought he had won it for the much-changed Magpies."
"Andoni Iraola also shuffled his pack, but it was one of the five men he retained, Eli Junior Kroupi, who produced the first attempt on goal when he thumped a fifth-minute shot into Ramsdale's midriff after running on to Enes Unal's knockdown. The hosts would have gone ahead two minutes later had Djordje Petrovic not managed to claw away Yoane Wissa's curled attempt after Nick Woltemade had turned Barnes's clever flick into his path."
A pulsating FA Cup third-round tie finished 3-3 after 120 minutes before Newcastle beat Bournemouth 7-6 on penalties. Harvey Barnes opened the scoring and Newcastle later trailed 2-1 after Alex Scott and David Brooks scored in quick succession. Anthony Gordon levelled from the penalty spot late to force extra time, and Marcus Tavernier equalised in the second minute of stoppage time at the end of extra time. Aaron Ramsdale saved penalties from Evanilson, Alex Jimenez and Bafode Diakite to secure the shootout victory. Several fringe players started for both sides as managers shuffled their squads.
