Newcastle won the first leg of the EFL Cup semi-final against Southampton. Joelinton scored the only goal of the game off an Alexander Isak assist with 17 minutes left on the clock.
What is more, the game offered a peculiar happening. In the 86th minute, Caleta-Car was sent off after getting a second yellow card. The interesting part happened when the Saints' player headed towards the changing rooms.
On the way, he walked past Newcastle player Jacob Murphy, who did not hesitate to make fun of him.
The English winger waved the Croat goodbye, and the Balkan centre-back, riled by what he had seen, did not respond to what was without doubt an attempt to annoy him.
