If Newcastle score that, it's game on, they were playing with more energy and intensity than City from the outset and were creating a few chances. After the non-goal, they channeled that into anger and started letting that anger seep into their play and got more aggressive so that moment changed the game completely.

They were not.

The game was even before that goal was scored, with City probably looking more likely to score the 2nd.

Newcastle only got into it after the goal was disallowed because their fans spurred them on. They only "dominated" the game because of the 12th man. Unfortunately for their fans, Newcastle aren't exactly great. They were playing like they were managed by Fat Sam ffs.

They were, maybe you weren't watching the game, City looked like they could get a 2nd but Newcastle were pressing hard and were playing with more energy than City. After the call there was a drastic difference in their play, they were more sloppy with their passing, shots and, as we saw with Mbiwa, challenges.

Are we really debating whether equalizing vs City would or would not had a psychological effect on Newcastle?
