Pardew performance

      

   The Magpies opened the scoring at the Estadio da Luz through a 12th-minute strike from Papiss Cisse, who subsequently hit the post. But the hosts equalised in the 25th minute when Rodrigo finished from a Tim Krul parry, and after Cisse struck the woodwork again with a delicate effort early in the second half, Benfica took control of the tie.There was obviously a mistake for the first and then with the second Steven is so unlucky. It looks like he has caught his boot laces in his studs and that it has affected his jump (when the ball struck his arm), and we have ended up gifting them a third.First, Davide Santon's poor attempted backpass allowed substitute Lima to round Krul and make it 2-1 in the 65th minute. Then, six minutes later, Oscar Cardozo scored a penalty after Steven Taylor was penalised for a handball in the area. Reflecting on his team's efforts, Pardew said: "We are disappointed with the result because of the performance level.
