GOAL! Newport 1-1 Leeds (Shaughnessy, OG)
76' - Rodney Parade erupts as Leeds' Conor Shaughnessy inadvertently turns Frank Nouble's cross past his own goalkeeper and into the back of the net!
Game on!
Scot Bennett of Newport County and Mateusz Klich of Leeds United battle for the ball
80' - That equaliser is nothing more than Newport deserve and, in truth, they look like the more likely side to go on and win this match.
Are we going to see a shock in the day's early game?
83' - Robbie Willmott's free-kick is headed back across goal by Scott Bennett to the far post where Padraig Amond is waiting... but the Newport striker can't get enough power on his header and Andy Lonergan makes an easy save.
86' - Paul Hayes replaces Padraig Amond for Newport... and almost makes an instant, spectacular impact as his 30-yard volley loops just over the crossbar.
What a way to win the game that would've been!
GOAL! Newport 2-1 Leeds (McCoulsky)
89' - What a goal!
Shaun McCoulsky leaps like a salmon to head the ball into the net from Robbie Willmott's corner.
We've got a shock on the cards!
90+1' - Samuel Saiz, who only came on for Leeds in the 75th minute, has been SENT OFF!
It's not yet clear why but something must've happened in the aftermath of that Shaun McCoulsky goal.
Full-time - Newport 2-1 Leeds
Mike Dean blows the final whistle and League Two Newport have come from behind to dump Championship side Leeds OUT of the FA Cup.
What a win! And you can't say they don't deserve it - Newport were superb today!
