Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimaraes was happy with victory at Fulham.

The midfielder was the matchwinner at Fulham on Saturday.

He said: "What day, what a day for me! The first 20 minutes was not good enough from us, but after that and then in the second half it was an unbelievable performance from everyone.

"100 games for the club, wow! What a journey I have been living here. I am very happy, glad. Everyone deserved to win the game today. The feeling against Everton, to lose the win in the last minutes hurt a lot. So to get here today, 100 games, score, what a day!

"We did not start well, so slow with and without the ball. We gave them so much time in between the lines and on the ball. We were not Newcastle United. At half time the gaffer said a few things to change and in the second half we were Newcastle United."

On having not been booked since January, he added: "It is hard because for me when I play for this club I give everything, I am aggressive, so it is hard not to get yellow cards. I love to play football with energy and sometimes I am a little bit too strong. I spoke to the manager and he told me to play smarter. I have been doing this and there is just one more game to avoid one."

Guimaraes concluded: "I hope to stay much longer. I don't know what the future brings let's see, but I hope to play much more for Newcastle United."
