The love rat was caught out at the back twice as his nightmare defending allowed the Magpies to go 2-1 up at St James' Park.

The England right back took to his Instagram to post six pictures of himself during the game followed by the caption: "Team spirit on show tonight. Get in!!"

The photos showed Walker celebrating with his teammates after they went second in the Premier League, followed by a picture of him walking out with the captain's armband and a young mascot.

But the game wasn't one of Walker's best after a mixed first half that saw the 33-year-old be out skilled by Alexander Isak who curled a shot into City's right hand corner.

Minutes later, Anthony Gordon whisked past the City skipper on the left to send Newcastle 2-1 up with an almost identical strike.

MORE ON Kyle Walker

Walker was earlier involved in a collision with his own keeper Ederson and Newcastle midfielder Sean Longstaff.

The clash forced the goalie off the pitch and and he was replaced by second choice keeper Stefan Ortega.

The skipper's started the game well and managed to get himself a nice assist.

After breaking through Newcastle's back line, he teed up Bernardo Silva who sent a masterful back heel sailing past keeper Martin Dúbravka.

Belgian maestro Kevin du Bruyne came on in the second half to save City blushes as he drew his team level at 2-2 with a stunning strike.

De Bruyne then played a sublime ball over the defence to find the run of youngster Oscar Bobb.

He took the ball from one foot to the other before slotting it into an empty net having beaten Dubravka - bringing the score to 2-3.

Walker earlier shared a photo on Instagram leaving fans to speculate whether he would make an appearance despite his ongoing relationship troubles with wife Annie Kilner.

The post showed a collage of photos of Walker which reads 'Newcastle vs Man City' adding "1730 KO".

He was later spotted signing a young fan's shirt a few minutes before kick-off.

Walker was dumped earlier this week after Annie was sent a message about a "second love child" with Instagram influencer Lauryn.

The model is understood to have bluntly written: “I don’t have two baby daddies — I have one.”

Tearful Annie confronted the Man City full-back and the pair argued before she ordered him to leave the family home.

Annie — who has sons, Roman, Riaan and Reign, with the player — then announced she was “taking time away” from him.

In an apology to his wife, Kyle wrote on Instagram: "Annie is an amazing woman and I can only apologise for the upset I've caused her."

She had previously been humiliated after Kyle was unmasked as the father of Lauryn’s son Kairo, born in April 2020.

They conceived the youngster during their short relationship when Kyle was temporarily split from Annie Kilner - who finally dumped him for good this week.

In November 2021, Kyle and Annie - who have three sons together - got married.

But in March 2023, Lauryn revealed that she was expecting her second child - and kept tight-lipped about her daughter's paternity, only revealing he “is a footballer”.

But on Boxing Day Kyle's betrayal finally caught up with him.

A source said: “Lauryn had  had enough of the lies so told Annie everything on Boxing Day.

“Annie was stunned but knew ultimately that Lauryn was telling her the truth. There is no hiding that fact. She thought she deserved to know the truth.”

Annie and Kyle met as teenagers in their home city of Sheffield.

But their troubles began after he made a £50million move from Tottenham to Manchester City in 2017.

In 2019 it emerged he had romped with Ex On The Beach star Laura Brown in his Bentley.

Model Annie kicked him out but gave him another chance.

He was moving his stuff back in when he had a brief fling with Lauryn and she fell pregnant. Kyle moved out of the family home and began renting a luxury £8,000-a-month apartment in nearby Hale, Cheshire.

He pleaded with Annie to take him back but was then exposed for breaking Covid rules by hosting a £2,200 orgy with two hookers.

Lauryn gave birth to Kairo in April then publicly unmasked Walker as his dad.

Annie took him back again and he proposed with a £250,000  ring.
The couple wed in December 2021 at Mottram Hall, Cheshire.

It comes as the player romped with Ex On The Beach star Laura Brown in his Bentley 4x4 and was caught having a Covid busting orgy with two hookers.

Last March the City star was seen on CCTV exposing himself in a bar and snogging a woman.

He dirty-danced with the woman — not his wife — and a female friend after he arrived at the Manchester venue drunk with male pals.

Walker later voluntarily attended a police station for an interview for indecent exposure.
