Jaissle backs Newcastle United to build on Fulham draw as he praises Murphy

Newcastle United manager Matthias Jaissle commended his side's improved performance and praised winger Jacob Murphy following a 1-1 draw against Fulham at Craven Cottage. Murphy gave the Magpies the lead after taking advantage of an error by Sander Berge, but Newcastle conceded just three minutes later to settle for a point. The result helped the club avoid a fifth defeat in six matches.

Jaissle described the display as a step in the right direction to build upon, while expressing frustration over a disallowed Dan Burn header ruled out for a foul by Yoane Wissa. He highlighted Murphy's defensive discipline alongside his attacking output, noting the upcoming international break will allow the team to reflect and address areas needing improvement.
