Muniz rescues a point for Fulham against Newcastle
The substitute equalised late with his first league goal of the season, after Jacob Murphy's 25-yard strike had put Newcastle ahead.
Rodrigo Muniz rescued a point for Fulham late on against Newcastle, cancelling out Jacob Murphy's 25-yard strike with his first league goal of the season. The Brazilian came off the bench and scored after CĂ©sar Palacios, who had been at fault for the Newcastle goal, played a clever pass to him.
The draw denied Matthias Jaissle a welcome win after a difficult week that included a defeat to Everton last Monday. Newcastle had lost four of their previous five games in all competitions. According to The Guardian, Fulham have now gone four matches unbeaten.
The game was a poor one for both sides, who are both close to the bottom three. Newcastle had a goal by Burn ruled out in the 33rd minute for a foul by Wissa on Castagne, a decision the Premier League explained as a clear holding offence. In the end, the draw was a fair result.
