Review of the match Newcastle - Brighton:

In a tense Premier League match held at St James' Park, Newcastle faced Brighton in a tense contest that ended in a 1-1 draw. Brighton took the lead as early as the 18th minute: a goal was scored by J. Veltman, putting the team ahead. Newcastle responded just before the break: S. Longstaff equalised the score - 1:1. Both teams made several substitutions during the match, hoping to gain an advantage. Brighton's T. Lamptey replaced Veltman in the 40th minute, and Newcastle released A. Isak, J. Murphy and Joelinton in the 68th minute.

There were plenty of yellow cards in the game, with B. Gilmour, J. Enciso and D. Welbeck receiving warnings, while L. Hall and M. Almiron were also in the referee's book. In the 85th minute Newcastle seemed to take the lead thanks to an A. Gordon goal, but the goal was cancelled due to offside, much to the disappointment of the home fans. In the final minutes of the match, both teams were aiming for the winning goal, but in the end they had to settle for a draw. Brighton made a late substitution, with K. Baleba and S. Adingra coming on in place of Gilmour. Adingra came on instead of Gilmour and Offiah, and Newcastle released K. Trippier instead of Hall. The game ended with the score 1:1, and both teams took a point in a hard fought battle on the field.

In the next round the rivals are waiting for such matches: Man.United - Newcastle, Brighton - Chelsea.
