Newcastle United captain Cheik Tiote told Sky Sports after the game, that he doesn't understand why his goal wasn't given but that they now need to accept it and move on. Tiote put the ball in the back of the net in the first half before it was then ruled offside.

Man of the Match Tiote told Sky Sports in his post match interview;

"I don't understand why the referee didn't give the goal.

I think it was Gouffran who was next to the goalie but he didn't touch it. I don't know why the assistant referee decided to give offside.

That's football, we need to accept it and go forward.

I'm so disappointed today but I think we played well and that's the most important thing. We can take it on to the next game."
