Mallorca threw away a second half lead and ended up losing 4-1 at Newcastle. Luis Aragonés's side had the better of the first half, with Eto'o testing Given a couple of times, and they went ahead after the break when Correa headed past the keeper on the follow up after Eto'o hit the bar.

The English side came back though with four goals in just over a quarter of an hour to give them a lead which should see them through to the quarter finals. Bellamy started things off from a rapid counter-attack, and four minutes later Shearer made it two when he headed home Robert's corner.

Worse was to come though for the Balearic islanders, and Robert scored a third goal for Bobby Robson's team with a long free kick which Leo Franco should have stopped. The Spaniards were left with ten men seven minutes from the end after Edu Moya picked up a second booking for a foul on Shearer, and from the resulting free kick Robert whipped the ball in for Bramble to volley home a fourth.
