Minute-by-minute report: Join Scott Murray for updates from the first leg at St Mary’s
Corner for Newcastle on the left. Trippier’s delivery is punched confidently clear by Bazunu. No idea what the actual stats are, but it doesn’t feel like too much of this game is being played in the middle third of the park. Most of it near the Saints box, in fact.Alcaraz strides up the middle of the park and nearly releases Mara with a long pass up the left channel. Pope reads the danger and races out of his box to intercept and clear. This is good fast fun.
Wilson can’t bring the ball down to shoot. Newcastle try again, Almiron rolling cutely down the inside-right channel. He looks to have released Longstaff into the box, but Salisu sticks out a leg to make a perfectly timed block. Longstaff goes down, wanting a penalty, but neither referee nor VAR shows any interest in giving him one.… and as though to prove it, he launches a long pass down the middle with that right peg.
