Yes Newcastle could have found themselves 5-0 down at half time, but they more than sorted themselves after the break and had enough chances to win the game. The style of play didn't waver, certain members of the squad got more individual minutes under their belts and the players as a group got another 90 minutes under their belts to get to know each other. Even though they did lose to what many will look at as a far inferior side, it wasn't that all bad... Although things should only get better from here on in. Still plenty of positive signs for United fans to live off until Newcastle take on Sacramento Republic in three days time.
