Newcastle frustrate Liverpool in a goalless draw

Newcastle United held Liverpool to a goalless Premier League draw this morning.

Liverpool's Mohamed Salah missed two key opportunities either side of half-time while United's Fabian Schar denied Sadio Mane a tap-in with a timely clearance off the goal-line in the 80th minute.

Roberto Firmino also went close midway through the second period, failing to hit the target after Newcastle keeper Karl Darlow was stranded following a corner.

And the Brazil forward then saw his 88th-minute header superbly denied by Darlow as the hosts held on to a well-earned point.

Liverpool leads the points table with 33 points.
