Bristol City inflicted Newcastle United their first defeat of pre-season with a humbling 4-1 win at Ashton Gate.
Goals from Sam Greenwood and Lorent Tolaj gave the hosts a deserved scoreline at the break. Max Bird fired the Robins into a three-goal lead shortly after half-time as the 3,800-strong away end feared a cricket score.
Ultimately, Harvey Barnes netted a consolation before a comical Sven Botman own goal completed the rout. Here are your Newcastle United player ratings from a pre-season fixture to forget.

1. Ewen Jaouen - 5
Good save to deny Sam Greenwood early on. Had little chance with the former Sunderland man’s free-kick. However, the second goal was certainly saveable. Subbed for Nick Pope at half-time. | AFP via Getty Images
2. Jacob Murphy - 4
Once again captained the side, this time in the unfamiliar role of right-back. Came close with a first-half volley. Not sure what he was doing for the third goal. | Getty Images

4. Fabian Schar - N/A
