One of our longest-serving players, Hugo, captain of Club and country, was in fine form as we battled to a decisive 1-0 victory against the Toon.
Hugo made the save of the night to turn away Jamal Lascelles’ header in the first half and made a key intervention as Dwight Gayle look to pounce from close range inside the final 20 minutes.
In the end, Harry Kane’s delicious curler from 20 yards five minutes after half-time won it and a top four place was secured when Chelsea were held by Huddersfield.
We can now finish third with a win against Leicester City in the season’s finale back at Wembley on Sunday (3pm).
