Yamal rescues Barcelona from Newcastle’s trap with a last-minute equalizer

The first leg of the Champions League Round of 16 between Newcastle and Barcelona lived up to its promise, delivering a thrilling encounter from start to finish.

In the first half, Newcastle had a slight edge and posed a greater threat to Juan Garcia’s goal, but neither side could find the net.

The second half was largely balanced until Harvey Barnes opened the scoring for Newcastle in the 86th minute.

Many thought the tie was over, but Lamine Yamal calmly converted a penalty in the final minute to level the score past Aaron Ramsdale.

Now, either Barcelona or Newcastle will need a win in the second leg next Wednesday at the Nou Camp, the home of Spotify.
