Eddie Howe addresses Bruno Guimaraes speculation after Newcastle draw at Gateshead (Gift Article)

The Newcastle coach said there was "nothing to say Bruno won’t be back training with us" despite Arsenal's summer interest in the midfielder

Full-time: Gateshead 1-1 #NUFC Eddie Howe's side dominated possession, territory & chances, but lacked a cutting edge (Will Osula was absent, so they had no senior striker). Gateshead scored with pretty much their only chance. #NUFC waiting on return of big senior cohort of players.

Back under way for the second half at the Gateshead International Stadium, where #NUFC trail 1-0. No changes at half-time for Eddie Howe's side. Expecting mass changes around the hour mark, when U21s will come on (& probably Ewen Jaouen).

Half-time: Gateshead 1-0 #NUFC Missed chances for Sean Neave, Harvey Barnes & Fabian Schar, with #NUFC failing to turn dominance into goals. Sean Steur has looked good on the ball - demanding possession & wanting to play forwards. Poor goal conceded. Lack of cutting edge.

Gateshead 1-0 #NUFC. #NUFC have had almost all the ball & territory. With Gateshead's second shot, the first of which was the soft free-kick which Schar had conceded, the ball deflects, the #NUFC defence & Nick Pope don't react quickly, Luke Supyk pounces to score.

We're under way at the Gateshead International Stadium, where #NUFC's first public pre-season friendly against Gateshead is taking place. Jacob Murphy is captaining the XI, which doesn't feature any World Cup players. An impeccably observed minute's silence for Kevin Keegan was held beforehand.
