'Lacked spark' - national media react to Newcastle United's 2-2 draw with Leeds United

Newcastle United 'lacked spark' in their 2-2 draw at Leeds United, according to the national media who watched yesterday's match at Elland Road.

The home side led and then missed a golden chance to double their lead before Eddie Howe's men turned the game on its head courtesy of two Callum Wilson penalties to lead 2-1 with 21 minutes remaining.

However, the hosts battled back to equalise 10 minutes later, securing a vital point for the hosts in their fight against relegation and meaning Newcastle United missed the chance to take another giant step forward towards a top four finish.
