Events

0' The game is set. Newcastle United FC kicks off things out of here…
5' It is a cagey affair so far. Newcastle United FC in their 4-3-3 trying to find a way past Nottingham Forest FC's compact 4-2-3-1.
10' named a 4-3-3 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
15' Dan Burn is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Nottingham Forest FC tonight.
20' It looks surprising Nottingham Forest FC does not make any changes. Ibrahim Sangare has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
23' Newcastle United FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Alexander Isak on 23.
26' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Ibrahim Sangare.
27' Newcastle United FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 27.
28' Poor challenge from Gonzalo Montiel. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
33' Nottingham Forest FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
38' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
43' It’s high time Eddie Howe made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
46' What an equalizer from Chris Wood!
51' Sven Botman is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Nottingham Forest FC so far.
53' Goal! Chris Wood scores his 89 goal in 347 matches.
55' The crowd applauds Miguel Almiron as he leaves the pitch. Callum Wilson steps in for Newcastle United FC.
56' A tactical swap from Newcastle United FC — Valentino Livramento on, Dan Burn off on 56 minutes.
60' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Chris Wood makes it 1-3.
65' With 0 assists to his name this season, Lewis Miley is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Newcastle United FC.
70' Fresh legs for Nottingham Forest FC! Ryan Yates comes on to replace Ibrahim Sangare.
72' The Newcastle United FC bench stirs into life. Sean Longstaff is withdrawn and Joelinton gets his opportunity.
77' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Anthony Elanga suffering a number of foals already.
79' Nottingham Forest FC make a change. Callum Hudson-Odoi trudges off to be replaced by Nicolas Dominguez on 79 minutes.
84' Nottingham Forest FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
85' Newcastle United FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
88' The referee shows Newcastle United FC player a Yellow card on 88.
90' Joe Worrall gets the nod from Nottingham Forest FC. He replaces Anthony Elanga and will look to change the dynamic.
1-3 the final result. Newcastle United FC will be bitterly disappointed.
