There's the last-minute winner, and then there is what Papiss CissA provided for Newcastle yesterday, to take his part in to the quarter-final of a cup competition for initially since 2006. The next official, Thorsten Schiffner, had advised 45,000 Newcastle fans that there could be three minutes of added-time in last night's game when he held up his table. The final second of these three have been performed when Sylvain Marveaux crossed with accuracy from the left side of the Anzhi Makhachkala half. The flight of the ball cut through the visiting protection and from the matter of yards, CissA headed in as extraordinary successful purpose as you will see. There is not time for the game to restart. Some Anzhi players fell to their knees. The Newcastle counter rejoiced. Manager Alan Pardew tried, but couldn't really hide his pleasure. Even Mike Ashley, sat in the administrators' field, smiled. The Europa League was presented with the opportunity to shine last night, in the absence of any more English involvement in the Champions League. It could not have done a lot more for offering drama. Anzhi, through Mbark Boussoufa, had struck the club in the 88th minute from the free-kick. The visitors were the higher team in the initial half, lacking two very good chances through Samuel Eto'o and Mehdi Carcela-Gonzalez and had what their manager Guus Hiddink named a "stupid' sending off in the 55th minute when Carcela-Gonzalez committed a a' and a terrible one at a ' on Massadio Haidara, having recently been arranged. Which was important, diluting the technical potential of the Russian side. CissA's was still a hard and frequently alone night, until that extraordinary climax. "I haven't experienced a casino game finish as late as that, ever," said Pardew. "John [Carver] come over and told me the game was over and I believed [he meant] it was over before he scored for a moment. It was good it was the past attack of the overall game. "It was a very small matter. They have been beaten by us although with a little of fortune. On a technical top, which was a superb team available, we rode our luck a bit. We dropped [Yohan] Cabaye and that was a huge issue for us. In the long run our durability has paid huge benefits for all of us. Papiss waited, he was calm, that's what goalscorers do. They're relaxed because important time. Obviously I think we are able to get it [the Europa League]." CissA had scored in the minute against Stoke in the Premier League on Sunday. This is even later. "When the ball came over I thought, 'Here is the one'," said CissA. "Thank you God." Hiddink said his side centered, but accepted that's perhaps not enough."We killed the overall game within 17 minutes," he said and may have developed 3 or 4 open possibilities in the initial half. "If we'd a jury vote we'd have won unanimously. We may blame ourselves and be critical of failing of a dangerous weapon we did not have. Even after the ridiculous 2nd orange we were prepared. Once you lose in the last minute." It is bitter Man of the match S Taylor. Fit rating 6/10. Umpire N Aytekin (Ger). Presence 45,487.
