While gutted he couldn't be there in the flesh, Sam Fender posted a brilliant reaction to Newcastle making the Champions League as he watched the game in Italy.
Seventeen Going Under star Sam had a real 'pinch me' moment last week, when having announced last year that he and his band would be supporting rock icon Bruce Springsteen in Europe, he finally got to meet his biggest musical inspiration. Sam was left in tears at getting come face to face with the man who's given the world classics like Borin the USA and Dancing in the Dark and he could well have been crying tears of joy on Monday night as United sealed their place in Europe's most famous footballing competition.
Sam has been at St James' Park on numerous occasions this series, including when he walked onto the pitch at half time of the Crystal Palace match, just a day after he announced he'd be playing two massive shows at the stadium in June.
