Newcastle United beat Manchester City by 1-0 to go through to the round of 16 of this year’s Carabao Cup. Here are Newcastle player ratings vs Man City.

Manchester City were unbeaten this season coming to St. James’ Park for their third round tie against Newcastle United. They were in red-hot form throughout the season. However, Pep Guardiola decided to make some chances and as a result, the Citizens were handed their first loss of the season as they crashed out of this year’s EFL cup. For the Magpies, this game was a statement. Eddie Howe made 10 changes to the team that beat Sheffield 8-0. Still, Newcastle managed to get the job done through an Isak goal in the 53rd minute of the game. So, here are Newcastle player ratings from their 1-0 win over Manchester City.

Newcastle player ratings against Man City

Nick Pope (7/10) made some good saves, his distribution was decent, and overall he had a good game. Tino Livramento (8/10) impressed all in his debut as he handled the right-hand side both defensively and going forward very nicely. Jamaal Lascelles (7/10) showed that he can be good aerially. Paul Dummett’s (7.5/10) tackle to Grealish was one of the moments in that match. For Matt Targett (6/10), it was an average day as he struggled in the first half but got better in the second.

In the midfield, Sandro Tonali (5/10) was disappointing as he lost possession often. Lewis Miley (4/10) struggled in the midfield and was taken off in the first half. Lewis Hall (4/10) was another disappointment in this game as he looked lost on the pitch on his full debut.

In the forward line, Joelinton (7.5/10) showed his importance as the Magpies took the lead through his assist. However, Jacob Murphy (5/10) was disappointing although he worked really hard. Alexander Isak (7/10) scored the goal and with his brisk pace troubled the City backline at times.

For the substitutes, Anthony Gordon (6/10) put in a shift after coming on for Lewis Hall. Bruno Guimaraes (7/10) came on for Miley and showed why he is the talisman for the Magpies. Miguel Almiron (7/10) was fantastic defensively when he came on for Isak. Elliot Anderson (6/10) came on for Tonali and Fabian Schar (6/10) came in for Dummett after 90 minutes and thus, both got an average score.
