The level of Newcastle United’s away locker room drew attention.
Football media Tribuna reported on the 29th, “I don’t know if I’m swimming in Newcastle United cash, but the away locker room still seems to be sticking to a temporary strategy.”
Nottingham Forest faced Newcastle in the 19th round of the 2023/24 season of the English Premier League (PL) at St. James’ Park in Newcastle, England, on the 26th and lost 3-1.
Newcastle scored the opening goal. In the 20th minute of the first half, Alexander Isak tripped over a defender in the penalty box and got a penalty kick. Isak took the lead as the kicker, finishing neatly with the bottom right.
Nottingham fought back fearfully. Chris Wood lightly pushed Antony Elanga’s pass in the 1st minute of extra time in the first half. In the 8th minute of the second half, Wood beat his opponent in the penalty box and scored the reverse goal with a sensible chip shot. In the 15th minute of the second half, Wood scored a hat-trick to break Newcastle down.
After the game, Nottingham winger Antony Elanga posted a video on his SNS. In the video, Elanga, who was excited after the victory, was seen dancing. However, the fans focused on the background, not the players. 토토사이트
Usually, big league teams such as PL decorate their facilities in a fairly up-to-date manner. Even if the locker room of the visiting team is not as good as that of the home team, the locker room of the visiting team remains comfortable to some extent.
Newcastle is one of the teams with a lot of money in the PL as well. Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund took over the team and put a huge amount of oil money on its back. Since the change of owner, it has attempted aggressive investment, and as a result, it ranked fourth in the PL last season and advanced to the UEFA Champions League this season.
In fact, you can check out the home team’s locker room with videos and photos posted on Newcastle’s SNS. Inside the home team’s locker room, there is a space to store soccer shoes and a closet with separate uniforms. The walls are filled with pictures that symbolize the club.
There was no storage space like a closet in the away team’s locker room. There were only long hangers and simple chairs on the wall.
Fans who saw the locker room through the video responded, “I think I’ll believe it even if it’s a prison without saying anything,” “Middle school and high school changing rooms are better than this,” and “Newcastle’s away locker room is at the level of early football.”
