Ghana winger Christian Atsu has received his boss Rafael Benitez’s praise following his spectacular goal which handed Newcastle United a 2-1 win over Cardiff City on Saturday.
Atsu excellently slotted in a pass from Serbian Aleksandar Mitrovic inside the box, a strike that has seen him earn praises from the former Real Madrid boss.
Speaking at a post match Benitez said “Great performance from Atsu and a very brilliant goal from him,” he said.
“He was very composed when the ball came to him and that is what every good player does in front of goal.”
