Rafa Bentitez was of the mind that Newcastle deserved at least a point for their performance in their 2-1 defeat to Tottenham at St James' Park on Saturday.
During a frantic nine minute spell early in the opening term the Magpies twice found themselves behind after Jan Vertonghen and Dele Alli headed home either side of Joselu's goal.
And while Spurs dominated much of the first 45, it was all Newcastle in the second as both Mohamed Diame and Salomon Rondon hit the woodwork as the Magpies looked to take advantage of the visitors' weary legs.
