Newcastle lost 1-0 away to Burnley thanks to a late strike from Jeff Hendrick after what was, to be frank, a quite terrible game of football.
Neither side looked like they would do enough to get all three points and whilst the performance wasn’t great, Rafa Benitez’s side would probably have been relatively happy with a point, but they were denied that by the Irish midfielder.
