DREAM DEBUT

Newcastle United fans rave about Miguel Almiron after energetic Premier League debut in Wolves draw

The Magpies' club record signing showed plenty of pace and determination following his move from Atlanta United

Miguel Almiron may have only enjoyed a brief cameo against Wolverhampton Wanderers, but he appears to have done enough to convince some Newcastle United fans.

The former Atlanta United midfielder, who made the switch from MLS during the January transfer window, replaced Christian Atsu at Molineux to an absolutely incredible roar from the 2,400 travelling fans.

Willy Boly's last-gasp equaliser rescued a point for Wolves to dent Newcastle's survival hopes as the game finished 1-1.

The defender nodded in deep into stoppage time - although the Magpies wanted a foul on goalkeeper Martin Dubravka.

Isaac Hayden's first goal for 17 months looked to have won it for Newcastle, who sit just a point above the Premier League relegation zone.

However, boss Rafa Benitez will be delighted to see how fans have taken to Almiron already.
