LIVE: Newcastle United v Burnley
Opportunity missed
Gudmundsson should have done better there. Cornet had managed to slip goal side of Schar, but the pass was poor.
First chance of the game
Pope's long ball is helped on by Wood and Cornet drags a shot from the edge of the box wide.
Free kick to Burnley
Justice probably served there. Shelvey seemed to have got the ball when Gudmundsson went to ground on the edge of the box. Cornet fires the resulting set-piece into the wall.
Gudmundsson's effort takes a deflection and crashes against the outside of the post. Superb work from McNeil to turn over possession in the build up.
Cornet goes close
Dubravka springs to his left to claim Cornet's header following McNeil's delivery into the penalty area.
Excellent challenge
What a challenge that is from Taylor to deny Wilson a clear view of goal. Absolutely superb.
