Newcastle United will wrap up their preseason with a big friendly against Atlético Madrid at St James’ Park on Saturday, 9 August 2025. For Eddie Howe’s team it’s the last chance to get match-sharp before the Premier League starts in a few days.

Newcastle have a corner in front of the Gallowgate and seconds later Atletico have the ball in the net at the Leazes End. Newcastle are caught out after losing the second ball in the middle of the park, with Tonali losing track of Alvarez - who was the last man but in his own half - as the away side broke quickly.
