10 Refereeing Decisions That Totally Screwed Newcastle United
4. Howard Webb Vs Sunderland (14.04.2013)
Scoreline: Newcastle 0-3 Sunderland Papiss Cisse's disallowed goal in the derby against Sunderland at St James' Park could have made things very different. The Black Cats took the lead after Stephane Sessegnon put the visitors in front but Cisse's 60th minute strike was wrongly ruled offside. The goal could have changed the whole game as the Magpies would have surely kicked on and pushed for a winner with the home crowd behind them.
