The game
Newcastle dominated the first half in terms of chances created and reached the opposing area with more danger. With that, in the 22nd minute, the score was opened by the home team with an own goal by striker Deniz Undav after a corner kicked by Trippier. After going behind on the scoreboard, Brighton held the ball more in their feet, but could do little before the break. Already in additions, Dan Burn extended to the home team.
On the way back from the locker room, six minutes into the final stage, Deniz Undav made up for the initial stumbling block and scored his own goal to close the gap. However, the visiting team failed to reach equality on the scoreboard and created few chances for that. Meanwhile, Brighton saw the opponent finish 21 times in 90 minutes and settle the game in the final stretch with two lightning goals from Callum Wilson and Bruno Guimarães.
