However, they were losing 2-1 in the dying stages of the game, before VAR controversially disallowed the Cherries’ winner due to a handball.
“A lucky point as that’s an awful decision re hand ball. Never hand ball for me,” Shearer wrote post-game.
Speaking on Sky Sports, pundit Jamie Redknapp added: “I don't think it's conclusive enough, I feel the manager's pain.
“It looks more like shoulder to me. None of the Newcastle players complained either.
“I feel their pain, it's a really disappointing one.”
