Edmond Tapsoba headed Burkina Faso to a dramatic 2-1 Africa Cup of Nations victory over 10-man Equatorial Guinea as they struck twice in stoppage time to snatch the points. The Stallions dominated the first half of the opening Group E encounter at the Stade Mohammed V in Casablanca, with Sunderland's Bertrand Traore and Brentford's Dango Ouattara causing problems down the flanks, but ultimately had nothing to show for their efforts at the break.

For Tommy Shields, the moment of magic was a blur. It was the dying seconds of Ireland's must-win match against Hungary on Sunday and he was high up in the third tier of Budapest's Puskás Aréna, roaring himself hoarse in the hope that the unexpected might, somehow, materialise. It did. In the sixth minute of stoppage time, goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher launched the ball towards goal.

Ronald Araujo delivered a 93rd-minute winner as Barcelona surged to the top of LaLiga with a last-gasp 2-1 win over Girona. Barcelona appeared set to miss out on taking top spot from Real Madrid, who face Getafe on Sunday, with frustrations boiling over as the Blaugrana looked to be dropping points.

Obviously we all know it is a difficult place to come, we all know there was a lot of oil on the fire this week to get, especially, Newcastle fired up. For us, we are disappointed to concede from two set-pieces and that shouldn't happen but, overall, it's a great three points. We move on and focus on the next one.
