West Ham United vs Newcastle United
That's all from London Stadium today, so thank you for joining us and goodbye!
West Ham United vs Newcastle United
West Ham still lead Newcastle by a point going into the international break, after which the Hammers will visit Aston Villa for an all claret-and-blue clash in Birmingham; meanwhile, Newcastle next host Crystal Palace and then Champions League opponents Borussia Dortmund.
West Ham United vs Newcastle United
Despite dominating the ball and improving offensively after a barren first half, Newcastle United can't follow up their landmark win over PSG with another Premier League victory, as West Ham snatch a late leveller. Isak's clinical finishing earned the Magpies a 2-1 lead heading into the closing stages, but substitute Kudus struck a superb equaliser with time running out and the spoils are shared at London Stadium. All things considered, perhaps that's the fairest outcome.

Trippier hangs up a free-kick from the right touchline towards Lascelles, but the Newcastle captain's header is then swallowed up in a packed penalty area. West Ham ultimately get the ball clear, and it seems it'll be one point apiece.

In the fifth minute of at least six added for stoppages, West Ham continue to push for a late winner. What a turnaround at London Stadium - they'd barely ventured into Newcastle's defensive third before going 2-1 down!

SHARP STOP! Pope keeps his side level! Bowen cuts in from the right, then drives a low shot towards the far post, forcing Newcastle's goalkeeper to dive full length and tip the ball wide! Benrahma fails to make contact with the rebound, so it's just a corner-kick.
