'It's Killing me', 'Love it' - Fans respond to Laura Woods' live reaction to Newcastle controversy

Fans have spotted Laura Woods’ reaction to Newcastle United’s late Champions League drama on Tuesday night (28 November).

The Magpies suffered a blow when Paris Saint-Germain were awarded a controversial 97th-minute penalty after Ousmane Dembele’s pass hit Tino Livramento’s forearm from his chest inside the box.

Kylian Mbappe predictably levelled the score at the death giving the French champions back their second-place spot in Group F with a 1-1 draw.

As the penalty drama unfolded, footage caught by TNT Sports revealed that Woods, who was seemingly preoccupied with the post-match analysis, was far less invested than pundit Jermaine Jenas.

Fans have taken to social media to discuss the presenter’s reaction and many feel she was the star of the show despite Jenas taking the spotlight.

This supporter claimed there was little reason to watch the footage other than to see Woods.

Other fans noticed a strange moment when a gloved hand fixed up her hair amid the spectacle at the Parc des Princes.

One supporter claimed Woods was the best part of the video even with Jenas’ emotional reaction to his former side’s heartbreak.

One fan suggested Woods, a loyal Arsenal fan, was not bothered at all by PSG’s late equaliser.

This fan claimed that Woods was invested in the game, but was secretly happy to see the Magpies’ Champions League downfall.

This supporter was confident that Woods was holding back her elation about the Magpies’ dropped points.
