What furious Bruno Guimaraes was seen doing as Newcastle United lose to Manchester City

Newcastle United never stood a chance as they were humbled by Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

It’s a game that Eddie Howe will want to forget in a hurry. His Newcastle United side was second best to everything and failed to contain Omar Marmoush as he scored a devastating hat-trick in the first half.

Newcastle captain Bruno Guimaraes wasn’t his usual self on Saturday. The Brazilian failed to stamp his authority on the game and was booked before being taken off in the 72nd minute.

Before the game, Man City boss Pep Guardiola called Guimaraes a ‘threat’ but his midfielders had no issue containing him throughout the game.

Alan Shearer blasted Newcastle for their performance, branding it as ‘pathetic’. The loss moves the Magpies down to seventh in the Premier League table in a week that could have moved them up to fourth with a win.

Elsewhere, Newcastle fans berated Kieran Trippier for his efforts in the defeat. The 34-year-old was taken off at half time for Tino Livramento after being at fault for Man City’s first goal.

With the dust settling on an eye-opening defeat, Guimaraes’ frustrations were evident when he was substituted.

Newcastle’s loss to Man City was another sign that qualifying for the Champions Leagueis still an incredibly tough task. If there are more performances like that towards the end of the season there is a chance Newcastle will not qualify for Europe at all.
Guimaraes was not his usual self by any means and his disappointment in his performance was clear to see when he was substituted. Per the Chronicle, Guimaraes was spotted taking out his chewing gum and throwing it to the ground as he walked towards the touchline.
