Chelsea 1-1 Newcastle: Howe and Tindall roared off as fans enjoy Stamford Bridge party on final day

Eddie Howe and Jason Tindall had their names chanted for long periods as the team played out a 1-1 draw against Chelsea.

The duo then took turns to punch the air in front of a delighted 3,000 away fans in front of the Shed as the season ended in party mode for Newcastle's Europe-bound fans. United picked up a final day point at Stamford Bridge but could have had this encounter wrapped up before half-time on a sweltering day in the capital.

United grabbed the lead early in the game thanks to Anthony Gordon but failed to add to their tally with Miguel Almiron guilty of missing a host of glorious chances. However, without Almiron's early season goals, the Magpies would not have had the platform to push on for a Champions League finish.
