Newcastle and Liverpool draw as Jaissle criticizes late penalty call

Newcastle's new manager Matthias Jaissle expressed discontent with a penalty awarded to Liverpool in stoppage time during their 2-2 draw at St. James' Park. Newcastle initially led with goals from Anthony Elanga and Joe Willock sandwiched around Cody Gakpo's equalizer. A late challenge from Lewis Hall on Victor Munoz resulted in Dominik Szoboszlai converting the penalty to equalize for Liverpool. Jaissle labeled the decision as 'really soft,' while pundits like Gary Neville and Micah Richards argued the call was warranted. The match concluded with a stalemate, the result leaving both teams reflecting on their performances.
