The Chilean was presented with a gilt-edged chance to open the scoring against the 'Magpies'. The 'Boy Wonder' drew Newcastle new boy Martin Dubravka off his line before rounding the Slovak with ease. It seemed a certain goal at that point, only for Sanchez to get the ball stuck beneath his feet, allowing Florian Lejeune to get in a vital block.
99% of the time Sanchez would have simply rolled the ball into the back of the net, but not on Sunday.
With the game level at 0-0 at the time of the miss, it proved to be a key moment, with Newcastle shocking their more illustrious rivals to run out 1-0 winners.
