Frustrated Howe rues 'concentration lapse' and poor finishing
The Straits Times|October 21, 2024
LONDON – Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe was disappointed with Danny Welbeck's first-half strike that gave visiting Brighton & Hove Albion a 1-0 English Premier League victory on Oct 19.

Howe's side struggled to get shots on target in the first half at St James' Park and, though they improved in the second, they still could not find the back of the net as they extended their run without a league win to four games, scoring only twice.

“We conceded with the first shot they had in the game. It's one of those moments where you go 'that sums football up'. That can happen sometimes when you're so dominant. One lapse in concentration cost us,” Howe told the BBC.

“I didn't feel we needed to totally rip up what we were doing. A goal looked like it was coming. The last 20 minutes was frustrating as we didn't put pressure on their goal, credit to Brighton for the way they defended, but we're frustrated.”
