Jordan Ayew is too good for Newcastle at the moment.
He again ghosts past Fabricio Coloccini as he makes the bye-line but his pull back is just about cut out.
Villa looking the more likely winner.

Villa are a side revitalised.
Jordan Ayew whips in a low cross from the right and Rudy Gestede is inches away from connecting at the far post.
It is all Aston Villa.

Former Newcastle United defender John Anderson on BBC Newcastle"Ayew still had a lot to do and it's a really good strike. But he was all on his own at the back post - no-one had gone with him, no-one had marked him."

The first real moment of quality and do Villa have new hope?
Jordan Ayew collects the ball on the left edge of the penalty area, he swivels and curls the ball into the far corner.
Unstoppable and probably no more than Villa deserve this half.
