"Newcastle 5 4 passed the risk, and the goalkeeper made a meritorious contribution! "！
Newcastle will travel to Blackburn Rovers in a last-eight tie. Newcastle's strength is very ordinary, and their results are also ordinary, after 26 rounds, 11 wins, 4 draws and 11 defeats, ranking tenth, only a little better than Chelsea. Newcastle's recent form has not been ideal, winning just one of their four league games, conceding 12 goals in four games, and their defence is weak. In this fixture, Newcastle will play against Blackburn Rovers, who sit in 16th place. Therefore, Newcastle must end the game with one win and one loss in the last match.
Newcastle played a 433 formation in this game. Anthony Gordon, Isaac, Murphy, all three are their attacking combinations. Willock, Guimaraes, and Longstaff were in the middle of the three. Dan Byrne, Schell, Ruscelles, Kieran Trippier, played a four-man defensive lineup at the back. The first to come out was Dubravka. Newcastle's starting list is worth £220 million. Blackburn's starting stances totalled just £2,775,000. There is a big difference in the value of the players in these two teams.
Blackburn Rovers won the game early on, with Conor Gallagher's powerful shot being confiscated by the opposing goalkeeper. Smodic hit the back of the net with a powerful shot from inside the box. Smodic posed danger again, but this time his foot was on the goalkeeper. Ross Barkley's long-range shot was snatched up by the opposition goalkeeper. Despite the poor situation on the field, the Blackburn Rovers still played with great momentum and were admirable.
In the 71st minute, the game is over! Anthony Gordon heads the ball in after receiving Almiron's cross in midfield! Blackburn lost the game!

The two sides were tied in the allotted time and a playoff had to be played. The two sides failed to score in extra time, so a penalty shoot-out was played. Smodic and Cayam were both penalized! Newcastle goalmen's Dubravka played well in this game, scoring a goal. In the end, Newcastle defeated Blackburn 5-4 and smoothly entered the 16-in-16! It was not easy for Newcastle to win. It's a shame Blackburn didn't do anything magical, but they played at a high level and they got 16 goals and they deserved it.
