Newcastle 1-2 Club Atlas – NUFC Match Ratings

9. Yoan Gouffran (Replaced By Rolando Aarons) - 3/10

Anonymous. He gave the ball away which led to Alas' second goal. A couple of his long range efforts sailed over the opponent's bar. Another pointless display.

Rolando Aarons - 6.5/10

Those who saw the winger play at Gateshead last Friday would have been left underwhelmed, but Rolando bounced back with a bang after being introduced in the second half. The England U19 international showed the Atlas right back a clean pair of heels on a number of occasions, as his introduction jolted a bit of life into United's display. Hopefully his fitness edges closer to 100% over the remaining two games of the American tour so we can finally see what a fully fit Rolando Aarons can do. Remember, he didn't do too badly when he was half fit last term...
