Newcastle midfielder Matt Ritchie was delighted scoring for their 2-2 draw with Bournemouth.

The veteran scored in injury-time to earn the point.

"I probably shouldn't have celebrated as much as I did because we needed to push for a win," Ritchie said. "I'm 34, not 25 now, but I'm still full of love for the game.

"When you haven't played and haven't scored, you miss that feeling. It's one of those things that keeps you going - scoring a goal, especially at that end of the stadium.

"I'm delighted to get the goal and the equaliser but frustrated that we didn't perform to the levels we know we can."
