Yoane Wissa came off the bench to score twice as Newcastle United beat Valencia 2-1 in a pre-season friendly, giving Matthias Jaissle a winning start in his first match as the club's manager.
Valencia took the lead but Newcastle fought back, with Wissa's goals securing the comeback victory. The Spanish side were reduced to 10 men during the match, a disadvantage Newcastle capitalised on. Wissa, who started the game as a substitute, proved decisive with his double.
The result was a positive opening for Jaissle, who took charge of Newcastle for the first time in this fixture. Reports also highlighted the performance of Toure, whose display was noted as a standout among the Newcastle players.
The pre-season match gave Jaissle an early look at his squad as Newcastle continue their preparations for the upcoming season. Wissa's goals will give the forward confidence, while the team will be encouraged by the comeback against a Valencia side playing with a numerical disadvantage.
Both reports agree that Wissa was the match-winner, scoring twice after coming on, and that Jaissle got off to a winning start. The friendly served as a useful test for both clubs.
