It ended Newcastle 2 Fulham 1.

Jacob Murphy did really well to close down last man Bassey and steal the ball, his run took him to outside the box and the low shot was perfectly into the corner.

He could and should have got a second not long after, as a brilliant first time pass from Gordon sent Murphy through with even more time to think, one on one with the keeper. This time though the shot inside the area not as clinical, allowing Leno a good save.

After Lukic equalised in the second half it became even more of a battle.

However, the last 15 minutes United dominated and relentlessly pressed for the winner, with the subs making a difference with fresh legs.

Will Osula did well to force Leno into a desperate save and Bruno followed up for the winner in the 90th minute! Phew!!

Looking at the individuals in black and white, interesting to get an independent perspective on how this played out.
