Toon Get Dream Draw

Last updated : 15 December 2006 By Footy Mad - Editor

Newcastle United will play SV Zulte Waragem of Belgium in the last 32 of the UEFA Cup, travelling away for the first leg.

The draw could not be better for Glenn Roeder's men, missing the likes of Feyenoord and that trip no-one wanted ... to Israel.

Zulte is based in West Flanders and the first game will be played February 14 or 15 at their 8,500 capacity Regenboogstadion. Which is "Rainbow Stadium" in English.

They are not the most powerful of teams and scraped through the competition behind Espanyol and Ajax.

They lost 3-0 at home to Ajax and 6-2 away to Espanyol. But beat Sparta Prague 3-1 at home and Austria Magna 4-1 away.

The second leg will be played at St James' Park on Feb 22nd, and if we get through we will play either Fererbache or Alkmaar.
