'Go on Miggy!' - Newcastle United supporters react after Miguel Almiron scores brace for Paraguay

Newcastle United forward Miguel Almiron scored twice - including a beautiful curling finish - as he put in a Man of the Match performance in a 2-2 draw against South Korea on Friday. The 28-year-old scored either side of half-time to put his country 2-0 up before a late Korean comeback levelled the score.

The 28-year-old proved too fast for the Korean defence when he latched on to a through ball to score the opener, before stepping onto his left foot after half-time and curling his effort into the far corner.

The performance earned him the Man of the Match and Newcastle congratulated their man on a top performance.
