Newcastle United faced off against Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium earlier today as they hoped to secure a good result on their travels in the Premier League. The Magpies made a decent start to the game and managed to get to the half-time break with a goalless scoreline.
Eddie Howe’s men pushed on in search of the opening goal in the second half but had to settle for a 0-0 draw away from home.
