Newcastle 2 Tottenham 2: Cristian Romero scores last-gasp overhead kick after Toon awarded controversial penalty

Hold on to your hats, folks, because Tottenham and Newcastle just delivered a match that was absolutely bonkers!

Cristian Romero, the Argentinian maestro, pulled a rabbit out of his hat – or rather, a bicycle kick out of thin air – in the 95th minute to snatch a 2-2 draw against Newcastle.

Let's be real, Spurs were staring down the barrel after Rodrigo Bentancur's moment of madness handed Newcastle a late penalty.

Anthony Gordon gleefully slotted it home, and it seemed like curtains for Tottenham and their under-pressure manager, Thomas Frank.

But then, BAM! Romero, like a superhero emerging from the smoke, unleashed an overhead kick for the ages, leaving St. James' Park stunned.

Newcastle came out guns blazing, eager to exploit any weakness in the Spurs' ranks.

But Tottenham, despite the rumblings of discontent within the team, weren't about to become pushovers.

They matched Newcastle's aggression blow for blow, turning the first half into a real dogfight. Thomas Frank, ever the animated figure, was a sideline volcano, erupting with instructions.

Remember when fans booed Guglielmo Vicario after that Fulham blunder? Well, his teammates seemed determined to shield him from any more embarrassment.

Lady Luck even gave Vicario a helping hand when Joelinton's shot kissed the inside of the post and bounced clear.

Tempers flared, and the atmosphere turned toxic when Vicario appeared to be struck by something thrown from the stands. Was it a rogue Toon Army missile or friendly fire from the Spurs faithful way up in the stands?

Newcastle's Bruno Guimaraes, surprisingly benched, injected some much-needed energy into the Magpies' midfield after coming on as a sub.

The game turned into a frantic end-to-end affair. Defenders threw themselves in front of shots, desperate to keep the ball out of the net.

Just when it seemed Newcastle was about to seize control, Anthony Gordon burst onto the scene, setting up Bruno Guimaraes for a cracking goal.

But Tottenham, refusing to surrender, hit back almost immediately. Romero, rising like a phoenix, headed home from a Kudus cross.

Then came the moment of sheer panic. Bentancur's clumsy challenge on Dan Burn handed Newcastle a lifeline – a penalty kick.

Gordon coolly converted, sending Vicario the wrong way, and the Newcastle faithful erupted in jubilation.

But the drama wasn't over! In the dying seconds, a looping corner found its way to Romero, who launched himself into the air and connected with a stunning bicycle kick.
