Bournemouth midfielder Marcus Tavernier says they "showed great courage" against Newcastle in Saturday's FA Cup third round shootout defeat. Substitute Tavernier got in between Sven Botman and Malick Thiaw to poke home in stoppage time and level at 3-3, taking the game to penalties, only for Newcastle to win the shootout and a place in the fourth round. "When it goes to penalties it is a lottery for the next round," Tavernier told BBC Radio Solent. "I think we handled them very well and showed great courage in going forward and defending. I felt like I could get one and we kept battling until the end because we know anything can happen.
