Late Yamal penalty earns Barcelona draw at Newcastle in Champions League
"Barcelona's Lamine Yamal struck from the penalty spot with the final kick of the game to salvage a 1-1 draw with Newcastle United in the first leg of their Champions League last 16 tie, cancelling out a late strike from Harvey Barnes."
"Newcastle appeared set to take a slender advantage into the second leg after Barnes scored in the 86th minute when he volleyed home Jacob Murphy's cross on Tuesday. But elation for the home fans turned to heartbreak when Malick Thiaw brought Dani Olmo down in the box in the fourth minute of stoppage time, and Yamal fired the penalty into the bottom corner as Aaron Ramsdale dove the wrong way."
"Mario Lemina's early diving header handed Galatasaray a 1-0 victory over Liverpool in their Champions League last-16 first leg in Istanbul, leaving the tie finely balanced after a compelling contest in which both sides saw goals disallowed."
