After the euphoric evisceration of Paris Saint-Germain, this was the downbeat sequel Newcastle did not want voslot
After the feelgood stories of the Geordie boys scoring in the Champions League came a tale of gritty realism, of meeting their match in the teeming Tyneside rain voslot
There was no triumphant farewell to Sandro Tonali, either: instead Newcastle lost to a goal by a midfielder they considered signing in the summer, in Felix Nmecha, and who Borussia Dortmund bought instead voslot
With Tonali likely to be banned for the rest of the season – he could learn his fate within days as an investigation into alleged breaches of voslot betting rules nears its conclusion – Nmecha gave Newcastle an added reason to rue their choice voslot
Nmecha was handed what seemed an unenviable task, hired from Wolfsburg, charged with replacing Jude Bellingham at the Signal Iduna Park voslot
And if that feels impossible, his first Dortmund goal kickstarted their European campaign voslot
Edin Terzic’s team had failed to find the net in their opening two games and if they looked like possible casualties in the competition’s group of death, it now looks like Newcastle could instead voslot
The margins were narrow, the width of the woodwork that denied Callum Wilson and Anthony Gordon but Dortmund inflicted their first defeat in this competition since Barcelona in 2003 voslot
Now Newcastle will head into the rematch in Germany without Tonali voslot
If his debut season in England ends early, it also came to an anti-climactic conclusion voslot
The Italian came off the bench with 25 minutes to go, making scant difference to a game Dortmund were already controlling voslot

Newcastle could not blow Dortmund away with their power: not when the visitors had a similar speed, and were lighting quick on the break voslot
Nor could their crowd intimidate them into defeat: not when the travelling Germans were still more vocal voslot
Instead, they encountered a team who could cancel out their strength, with a similar emphasis on high energy voslot
It was not effort Newcastle lacked, but then it never is voslot
Dortmund supplied a touch of class; arguably two, given the role of a pair of players in their goal voslot
Given how well they defended, perhaps it was apt it began with a challenge voslot
Nico Schlotterbeck halted Gordon with an immaculate tackle, surged clear and kept going, collecting Marco Reus’s return pass and squaring for Felix Nmecha to sidefoot in voslot
For a few seconds, the centre-back looked more Beckenbauer than Schlotterbeck voslot
The midfielder, who has something of Bellingham’s elegance, showed his technique with the finish voslot
It had been threatened voslot
The opening 10 minutes could have yielded two goals at either end, but thereafter in the first half Dortmund were the more dangerous voslot
The scoreline would have been greater but for terrific saves at either end voslot
If voslot footballing goalkeepers have captured the Zeitgeist, Newcastle have a goalkeeping goalkeeper voslot
Nick Pope was their saviour in San Siro and he threatened to reprise that role voslot
A first-minute stop from Donyell Malen was excellent: voslot better still was a superb double save to deny the Dutchman and Niclas Fullkrug voslot
Malen produced a curiosity of a performance, adopting a shoot-on-sight policy and mustering six efforts before the break voslot
Yet he was a sign of Dortmund’s counterattacking menace: their speed on the transition brought back memories of Jurgen Klopp’s blistering side a decade ago voslot
Kieran Trippier, so often a great strength for Newcastle, was made to look a weak link as Dortmund found space behind him voslot
Newcastle sent on Tonali late on (Getty Images)At the other end, meanwhile, Gregor Kobel made twin early saves from Gordon voslot
His best save came early in the second half, repelling Wilson’s shot voslot
And when Wilson beat Kobel with a late header, it bounced back off the bar voslot
It was not Dortmund’s only reprieve: in the 94th minute, Gordon’s shot looped up off Sebastien Haller, over Kobel and on to the bar voslot
Gordon was relentless, probably Newcastle’s best outfield player, yet Wilson’s prominence was a sign their plans were going awry voslot
Eddie Howe had demoted the striker and selected Alexander Isak, but he limped off inside a quarter of an hour voslot
When the substitute Jacob Murphy hurt his shoulder a few minutes after coming on, Newcastle may have, in effect, lost three players, given Tonali’s imminent suspension voslot
And yet Dortmund were depleted, too, minus Julian Brandt, stripped of the stricken Emre Can before half-time voslot
But there was a resourcefulness and a resilience to them, a willingness to them voslot
A team with a lone defeat in the Bundesliga in 2023 were not to be beaten voslot
And as Newcastle lost instead, it prompted the question of whether the anomaly was this underwhelming evening or the glorious night they demolished PSG voslot
