    Newcastle will consider lodging an appeal against the red card which will cost Anthony Gordon the chance to play in the Carabao Cup final.

    The Magpies forward was dismissed for shoving Brighton defender Jan Paul van Hecke's head in Sunday's 2-1 FA Cup fifth-round defeat.

    That would mean a three-game ban for violent conduct, that will include the EFL Cup final against Liverpool on Sunday, 16 March.

    Newcastle also missed a key player, goalkeeper Nick Pope, through a red-card suspension for the 2023 final which they lost to Manchester United

    "Of course. If we analyse the incident and feel there's grounds for that [an appeal], we will do without hesitation," said Magpies boss Eddie Howe.

    "I'd need to see it, I can't sit here and give an honest opinion to that until I've done the work that you've done and looked at it.

    "But knowing the player, I know there's no malice intended there."

    Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has defended himself after being called "naive" by former captain Wayne Rooney for suggesting the club's goal is to win the Premier League.

    United suffered a 10th defeat in 24 games under Amorim as they were knocked out of the FA Cup on penalties by Fulham in the fifth round at Old Trafford.

    It was the sixth loss at Old Trafford since the Portuguese took over in November and leaves winning the Europa League as the only realistic avenue back into European competition next season.

    Yet, initially speaking to BBC Sport after the game and then in his wider post-match news conference, Amorim spoke of United's desire to win the Premier League for the first time since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013.

    "The goal is to win the Premier League," said the Portuguese. "I know we are losing games but the goal is to win the Premier League again. I don't know how long it will take. We have a goal and we continue forward no matter what."

    Danny Welbeck scored an extra-time winner as Brighton beat Newcastle to reach the FA Cup quarter-finals after an incident-packed tie that ended 10-a-side.

    The Magpies thought they had booked their place in the final seconds of normal time, but Fabian Schar's cushioned volley was disallowed for offside by the video assistant referee (VAR).

    Newcastle had taken a 22nd-minute lead through an Alexander Isak penalty, but Yankuba Minteh levelled just before half-time against the club that sold him in the summer.

    Both teams had players sent off in a dramatic climax.

    Newcastle's Anthony Gordon was shown a straight red card in the 83rd minute for pushing Jan Paul van Hecke in the head – a decision that will rule him out of the Carabao Cup final against Liverpool through suspension.

    Brighton defender Tariq Lamptey was then dismissed in added time at the end of 90 minutes for a second booking following a late challenge on Jacob Murphy.

    Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno was the hero with two saves in the penalty shootout to knock Manchester United out of the FA Cup.

    After three precise spot-kicks from both sides, Leno denied Victor Lindelof, then, after skipper Antonee Robinson had extended Fulham's perfect record, the German also kept out Joshua Zirkzee's effort to send the Cottagers into the quarter-finals.

    Fulham had taken the lead in first-half stoppage time when Calvin Bassey was left free at the far post to head in from close range after Rodrigo Muniz had flicked on a corner.

    But, days after former United captain Roy Keane had condemned the influence of current skipper Bruno Fernandes, the Portuguese dragged his side level with a superb equaliser, driving home a low shot from the edge of the area after Diogo Dalot had found him with a pass from the touchline.

    Both sides could have won it without the need for penalties. Emile Smith Rowe, denied superbly by Andre Onana before the home side levelled, was repelled by the Cameroon international again before the tie went to extra time.
