Bruno Guimaraes remained proud of his Newcastle United teammates after their gut-wrenching defeat to Liverpool. Despite referee Andre Marriner adding five minutes of stoppage time, the Reds scored in the 98th minute to snatch a 2-1 win and all three points in the dying embers.
It ultimately proved the last kick of the contest and Newcastle players were visibly dejected at the full-time whistle. To add salt to their wounds, record signing Alexander Isak had a second debut strike ruled out for a controversial offside.
After the game, Guimaraes - who was ruled out of the defeat with a “niggling” injury - insisted the Magpies did not deserve to lose. The Brazilian tweeted: “Unbelievable performance of the boys! Proud of my team! (We did) not deserve to lose the game in the last minutes.”
