    • 2015 March 4, Louise Taylor, The Guardian[1]:
      Despite ceding the majority of possession to Van Gaal’s clearly superior side, a defeat facilitated by Mehdi Abeid’s backpass was arguably a little harsh on a Newcastle team who might have had an early penalty before seeing Emmanuel Rivière and Cissé spurn fine counter-attacking chances.
