Robbie Elliott's kamikaze back-pass cost Newcastle another European campaign as they were knocked out of the Intertoto Cup at the semi-final stage tonight.
Elliott's blunder allowed Pedro Munitis in to seal a 2-1 win for Deportivo La Coruna and an emphatic 4-2 aggregate success.
James Milner had briefly put the home side in control with a 39th-minute strike but Jorge Andrade turned the tide with his chipped 45th-minute equaliser.
