19 - Swansea Made The Exact Same Number Of Tackles As NUFC
Despite Swansea having enjoyed 64.1% possession - nearly double Newcastle's 35.9% - the home side still managed to successfully make 19 tackles. That is the exact same number as Newcastle. What's most worrying is that both sides also attempted 26 challenges. If the Magpies were starved of possession for such long periods, why did they not at least attempt more tackles than the Welshmen?
