Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle United
Newcastle are committing men forward, but they are really struggling to halt Forest's breaks, which creates real danger. Nuno Tavares dances out of danger, then just overhits a pass to Elanga, who had isolated Burn again.

Newcastle just need to regain their composure. Forest are on the front foot now. First, Burn's stretching header goes straight to Awoniyi, before Botman recovers. Then, Elanga gets down the right and crosses, with Gibbs-White's flick cleared by Trippier.

This is a game Newcastle have controlled, and yet they have been undone in the same way in which they were at home in December. Gibbs-White finds space, those speedy attackers set off, and Newcastle's plodding defence cannot cope.

GOOAAALLLL!!! ELANGA LEVELS! 1-1! This time, Elanga's pace pays!

The Forest fans are furious as Schar appears to foul Awoniyi and yet avoids punishment. The Forest forward looks to be in some pain as the play continues around him. He, like Murillo, is able to continue.

Almiron so nearly gets a touch! Wilson is challenged, but the ball breaks to Trippier, who deliversa cute cross towards Almiron. If the winger makes contact, it is surely a goal, as Sels advances off his line, but he cannot get there and the goalkeeper gathers.

Murillo is moving uneasily after that last Newcastle corner, going down and briefly staying down. He continues without receiving treatment.

Gordon's hard running forces Niakhate into a hurried pass that Sels cannot reach, giving Newcastle another corner. This one is harmlessly headed into the hands of Sels by Schar.
