The Newcastle United goalkeeper – who joined the club on loan last week – played in the 4-2 defeat to PSV Eindhoven.

It was Krul's first competitive senior game since he ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament playing for Holland in October 2015.

Krul spent the first half of the season on loan at Ajax.
