Dermot Gallagher weighs in on Kieran Trippier incident during Newcastle United's Man City draw

Newcastle and Man City produced an early contender for game of the season as the two sides served up a six-goal thriller on Sunday. Ilkay Gundogan gave the reigning Premier League champions an early lead, before goals from Miguel Almiron and Callum Wilson fired Newcastle into the lead before the break.
