Newcastle takes care of West Bromwich Albion
Newcastle United has reached the sixth round of the FA Cup. The Magpies survived a paper match away at West Bromwich Albion relatively easily and won thanks to two goals from Miguel Almirón 3-2 at The Hawthorns. The Paraguayan midfielder scored twice before half time and saw how Allan Saint-Maximin made it 0-3 after the break. The 1-3 of Matt Phillips and the 2-3 of Kenneth Zohore came too late for West Brom.
Saarbrücken baffles friend and foe
That the small Saarbrücken, active on the fourth level in Germany, was in the quarterfinal of the DFB Pokal was a miracle in itself. Yet they managed to make it even more colorful by eliminating the Bundesliga team Düsseldorf in-house after penalties. The guests saved the game in the ninetieth minute by making up for Tobias Jänicke’s 1-0 through a goal from Mathias Jörgensen, but the four-division divisionist went on after penalties.
