Newcastle fans shout for a penalty as Matt Ritchie goes down in the area under a challenge from Bassong, but it would have been very soft if that would have been given.

It hasn't taken him long - substitute Aleksandar Mitrovic goes straight into the referee's book.

Martin Olsson goes into the book for Norwich too.

All that from an off-the-ball-incident. They both lost their tempers. Things are getting rather heated!

Newcastle make a double change, Aleksandar Mitrovic and Isaac Hayden replacing Mohamed Diame and Jack Colback.

Dwight Gayle pulled it down and hit it early, after a wonderful ball from Jonjo Shelvey.

Newcastle are right back in it!

Time for Rafa to earn his big money. 

Newcastle haven't created much in the last few minutes and you feel that Norwich will be happy to sit back and take the three points.

Yellow card for delaying the taking of a Newcastle free kick.

Foul on Ciaran Clark.

Ciaran Clark is back on the field after that whack on the hooter. Magic cotton wool in the nostrils and everything is OK.

Newcastle 1-2 Norwich

Newcastle centre-back Ciaran Clark is down having treatment after a clash of heads. Looks like he's taken a bang to his nose. 

'Yellow army, yellow army' is all you can hear from the small band of Norwich fans who've made the long and tricky journey to the north east this evening.

They've not seen many chances for their team, but Alex Neil's side have taken what opportunities they have had.

Cameron Jerome is allowed to come inside, looks up and curls a wonderful shot up into the far corner.

Norwich will be delighted. They've countered well and they're on top.

Newcastle had 12 shots to Norwich's two in the first half. Ruthless efficiency from Norwich or profligacy from Newcastle?

It's a big 15 minutes for Newcastle now. This could well be one of their season-defining moments.

If Norwich do start well, the (home) crowd could well get a bit restless.

So after an entertaining first period the scores are level between these two sides who were relegated from the Premier League last season.

Will we get a repeat of the 6-2 score here last season, or the 3-2 at Carrow Road back in April? 

Stay tuned here for the next 45 minutes to find out. 

Meanwhile, north of the border, they're enjoying quite a game - Man City have come from behind twice to go in 2-2 at the break away to Celtic, in a pulsating match.

And it is all going well for Arsenal so far, against Basel. The Londoners are 2-0 up.

Oh and Barcelona? They're losing.

You can follow the action from Celtic Park here.

Dwight Gayle should have had a hat-trick. He missed two absolute sitters.
