Newcastle boss Eddie Howe was pleased with two-goal Miguel Almiron in their 5-1 friendly win against Gateshead.
Howe was pleased with his opening performance of pre-season.
Speaking to NUFC TV, he said: "[He scored] Two great goals, both different.
"He showed his athleticism in the first and composure in the second. So I'm delighted with Miggy. He's come back here and hasn't had a lot of training as we gave him a little bit of extended time off with the other international players. Physically he didn't show any problems."
United will fly off to Austria tomorrow to begin a 10-day intensive training camp with a backdrop of the Alps. They face 1860 Munich next Friday then a test against Mainz 05 a week on Monday.
