Newcastle United 0 Metalist Kharkiv 0: match report We're not out of it, it's still open, they will have come and beat us. When you get decisions like that it puts a fire in your belly. I felt for Cisse, when he sees the replays he won't be able to sleep tonight, but he looks sharp, he's getting more chances and he'll get goals. It was a horrible evening for Cissé who found the one Ukrainian in the Metalist Kharkiv team, goalkeeper Olexandr Goryainov, impossible to beat when the linesman's flag stayed down. The Senegal international was denied twice by sharp stops in the first half and again in injury-time when his diving header was somehow kept out by the inspired Goryainov. Despite not playing a competitive game since December 6, Kharkiv, who prepared for this match with a friendly against Northern League outfit Whitley Bay, were lively early on and, when they did tire in the second-half, remained difficult to break down. Newcastle's plan was to retain possession and wait for Kharkiv's lack of match fitness to bite, but a team packed full of South American imports were always a threat when they attacked. The visitors had the first opening of the contest when Sosa and Cristaldo got in each other's way inside the area. Newcastle's goalkeeper Tim Krul also make a good save to keep out Cleiton Xavier's header. Sandwiched either side of that was Cisse first offside effort, although the Senegal international only had himself to blame when, running on to Yohan Cabaye's pass, he shot straight at Goryainov minutes later.. Cristaldo missed a good chance for the visitors early in the second-half , but they began to feel the pace in the final 20 minutes. Goryainov kept them in it with the help of the match officials.
