Newcastle’s striker Miguel Almiron joined the club’s history after scoring the club’s first goal in the Champions League this season after twenty years of absence in the competition and as the starting net of a historical night for the Magpies that ended with a brilliant 4-1 win against PSG.

In this sense, the Paraguayan striker, who was part of the Eddie Howe plan to attack the weaknesses of PSG on the wing with great gaps left by Luis Hernandez, knew how to profit the spaces and hit the rival with his speed and effectiveness inside and outside the box, which was a nightmare for the French giant.

At the 17th minute of the game, Almiron scored the first goal for the locals, the first after twenty years that the Magpies have been absent from the elite European competition, and he netted with the calm and the confidence of the player who is playing in his own backyard.

The Paraguayan player profited a rebound to score a beautiful goal

The goal arrived after a mix-up in the PSG defense, where Maquinhos missed a pass in the team’s build-up. Alexander Isak stole the ball and shot on target, but Donnarumma saved the goal, sending a rebound that fell on the boots of Miguel Almiron, who placed the ball in the far post with a powerful left footed shot. The Paraguayan player celebrated the goal with his teammates, while PSG at that moment did not know that the night was going to be a show by Newcastle
