Volkswacht Bodensee - Newcastle complete cruise into Champions League last 16

The Magpies will make up a six-strong contingent of English sides in the last 16 alongside Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City and Tottenham.

A tie that involved an over 5,000-mile (8,000 kilometre) round trip for both sides was killed off inside 45 minutes last week as Newcastle led 5-0 at half-time on their way to a 6-1 rout.

That allowed Eddie Howe to heavily rotate his side, with four-goal hero from the first leg Anthony Gordon among those left on the bench.

Newcastle still made another fast start to add to their lead twice inside six minutes.

Sandro Tonali fired in the rebound after Dan Burn's shot was saved before Joelinton stroked in Harvey Barnes' cross.

Qarabag had taken the scalps of Benfica and Eintracht Frankfurt in the league phase to make the play-off round and at least salvaged some pride with two goals in the second half.

Camilo Duran outpaced Burn to pull a goal back before the Newcastle defender was penalised for handball inside the box.

Aaron Ramsdale saved Marko Jankovic's penalty but Elvin Jafarguliyev netted the rebound.

In between the visitors' two goals, Sven Botman powered in a header from a corner.

That took the tally of goals conceded by Qarabag in the Champions League to 30 -- a single season record in the competition.
