Newcastle United players were quick to express their joy on social media after completing a thrilling comeback win against Leicester. A brace from Bruno Guimaraes saw him cement his status as the new fan favourite on Tyneside while lifting the Magpies 12 points clear of the relegation zone.
The traditional post-match dressing room photo after a win featured a flag from Wor Flags’ pre-match display - courtesy of Miguel Almiron. A team photo after a win is a trend that started after December’s 1-0 triumph over Burnley and yesterday’s was retweeted by Allan Saint-Maximin.
Bruno Guimaraes was active on Twitter after grabbing the headlines yet again. In just his second home start since arriving in January, the Brazilian stole the show with two goals before wishing fans a happy Easter online.
Matt Targett - who was pivotal for the 95th-minute winner - lauded his teammate post-match and highlighted Newcastle’s five-game winning streak at St James’ Park.
Another player who was crucial in the last-gasp strike was Joe Willock. The midfielder ran the length of the pitch before teeing up Guimaraes for a header. He reacted with love heart emojis to highlights of the goal.
