Schar limps off in defeat at Bristol City
Newcastle continued their pre-season preparations with a 4-1 defeat at Championship side Bristol City on Wednesday night. Sam Greenwood's curling free-kick put Bristol City ahead before Lorent Tolaj doubled the Robins' advantage before the half-hour mark. Shortly after the restart, Max Bird's strike extended their advantage and, despite Harvey Barnes pulling one back, a Sven Botman own goal restored the three-goal cushion in the closing stages.
