Mehrdad Ghodoussi insists Newcastle United’s players “gave everything” after being held to a frustrating draw by Leeds United.

Eddie Howe’s men were left to rue a number of missed chances, particularly in the second half, through Chris Wood & Sean Longstaff as the six-match winning run came to an end.

The Magpies, however, did extend their unbeaten run to 12 games, equalling a club record previously achieved in 1908/09 and 1923/24, and remain third in the Premier League.

The frustration at the full-time whistle was clear, but Ghodoussi has sent a rallying call to move on and focus on the trip to league leaders Arsenal on Tuesday night.

Ghodoussi tweeted: “The boys gave everything…we now move on and focus on the next game @nufc#nufc”
