Eddie Howe lamented his Newcastle side's defending as they were knocked out of the Champions League, losing 7-2 on the night and 8-3 on aggregate. ©️UEFA2026 TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Intro. 00:10 - Self inflicted: Our defending wasn’t at the level as it was at Chelsea. First half outstanding, too many individual errors. 01:13 - Too open second half: I didn’t see a need to change how we played second half. Second half we didn’t have the same energy. 02:20 - Special journey: I’ve got no problem picking myself up, I have to pick up the players. It’s now about Sunderland. 03:14 - Couldn’t live with their second half start?: Our performance dropped. The two set plays are unforgivable. Psychologically we never recovered from the penalty. 04:04 - Was it a penalty?: Timing of the third goal is hard to take. We went in on a negative feeling, didn’t defend the build up good enough. 04:49 - Tonali: Doubt for Sunday. Groin, hip problem. 06:02 - Difficult when the scoreline got away from us. The middle period between 60 and 80 was really difficult for us. 07:02 - Desire to get back to UCL: This is where we want to be. To see the players execute 90% of what we wanted was good. 07:52 - How big is the desire to respond against Sunderland: It’s huge, we have to play like our lives depend on it. @HaytersTV – Football Up Close.
