James Maddison celebrated his inclusion in England's Euro 24 squad with a goal but it was in vain as Newcastle beat Tottenham Hotspur on penalties in a post-season friendly watched by 78,000 fans in Melbourne on Wednesday.
"I thought the boys were good and it’s important, because 80,000 people turned up and they come here with the expectation of seeing a Premier League side play and it’s important we delivered that," said Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou.
"The main thing to take out of it is that we are representing one of the biggest clubs in the world, and I’d hate to think that anyone left here thinking that we didn’t take it seriously, and put on a good performance for all the people who came out here tonight, spent their money and like I said, for a lot of them, it’s the only chance they get to see our team play," he added.
