Newcastle United had a disappointing Tuesday evening, losing 2-0 to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League.

That sees Eddie Howe’s side sit bottom of Group F, with four points from four matches, and three points behind Dortmund, who are leaders.

That swing between the two clubs shows just how crucial Tuesday’s match was, and a win would have had the Magpies on top instead of bottom.

Such is life in a Champions League Group of Death.

PSG find themselves in second place after a loss to AC Milan in Italy, with the San Siro cheering the Rossoneri to a good performance against the French side.

After the match, SportItalia spoke to Kylian Mbappe, and he had a message for Newcastle United: “We played to win and we came close to making it 2-0. Well done to Milan in reacting, we will play with everything against Newcastle.”

In Italy, there’s so much confidence around AC Milan after the performance that Gazzetta dello Sport’s front page reads ‘You Are the King’, explaining the Rossoneri have it all in their hands.

Newcastle United now have to bring their own confidence together ahead of the final matches.
