Bruno Guimaraes gatecrashes Sandro Tonali's Newcastle United interview with hilarious four-word message
Bruno Guimaraes gatecrashed Sandro Tonali’s post-match interview after Newcastle United’s 2-0 win over Chelsea.
Newcastle United’s players were in high spirits following the 2-0 victory over Chelsea at St James’ Park on Sunday.
A goal in either half from Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes lifted the Magpies to third in the Premier League table and now require one win from their final two matches against Arsenal and Everton to secure Champions League qualification.
As well as sharing the goals, Tonali and Guimaraes also shared the post-match media duties with Tonali talking to the club’s in-house channel, while Guimaraes spoke to the broadcast and written media.
On his way from the broadcast area to the mixed zone, Guimaraes spotted Tonali getting interviewed and couldn’t help but perform his own little gatecrash! Just as the Italian is being asked about his enjoyment of playing at St James’ Park, Guimaraes grabs the mic and does a short rendition of “Sandro ole ole ole”.
What Bruno Guimaraes said about Newcastle United’s win over Chelsea
Moments later, the Brazilian spoke to NewcastleWorld and said: “We want to play Champions League next season. It's not a secret for no one. So we want more for this club. I think we have to dream big.
“Start from here. Start to win the cup. Start to qualify for the Champions League. And I think the future is bright for this club.
“I said to the guys, today, apart from the Carabao Cup final, is the most important game of the season. I think today was a six-point game. They gave a big step, but we have two more to go. But our mentality since the beginning, we have seen this game as a final for us.
"We should score the second one earlier in the game but we missed some opportunities. In the end, 2-0 is ok, we didn't concede. We scored two. Now let's go for more. We're very happy, 2-0 is very good but we lost a little bit of control in the second half and we gave them too much time. But a win is a win.
"We scored at the beginning and the end. It was a special one for me to score today as it is mum's day in Brazil. It was important but now we must keep going with two matches to go. Overall, I am very happy."

“It's good to score here at St James' Park but it's much better to score and win,” Tonali told the club website. “We spoke this week about three games [remaining] and we had a very big chance to play the next season in the Champions League.
“I think we need to push again, “We need to keep pushing because the Champions League is so difficult. Every game matters, every point matters now.
“We need to play game for game. Now we need to work, rest and work for Arsenal. We need to play the same as [v Chelsea]. We need to play to win every game and play the Champions League again next season.”
