Christian Atsu underwhelms in Newcastle’s defeat to Tottenham
2nd February 2019
Christian Atsu did not have the best of games as Newcastle United suffered a painful 1-0 defeat to Tottenham in the Premiership on Saturday.
The Ghanaian international failed to have any noticeable impact on the game and was guilty of some poor decision making.
He was substituted in the 82nd minute by Kennedy.
Son Heung-min struck late to ensure Mauricio Pochettino‘s men secured all three points.
The South Korean forward benefitted from a Martin Dubravka error with seven minutes left as his powerful 20-yard shot went under the Newcastle goalkeeper's body.
