Newcastle's dream in the FA Cup ended as the club failed to defend its title in the League Cup, not to mention facing what seemed like an impossible match against Barcelona on Tuesday. Newcastle's manager, Eddie Howe, commented: 'It's easy to be very negative in these moments, and I understand that we are out of the competition. But ahead of us is the biggest match — the game against Barcelona.' The transfer of Omer Zomer to Manchester City has turned into a nightmare for Newcastle, as he has now scored 7 goals in 5 matches against them, which is half of the total goals Zomer has ever scored for City. The British press dubbed Manchester City's Egyptian star Omer Zomer (27 years old) the 'Egyptian King' after he scored two goals in 100 seconds in the match where his team defeated Newcastle 3-1 and advanced to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.
