And we're off for the second half.

The sun is still shining over St James' Park. It's a nice day and if Newcastle can hold on, it will get even nicer!

Here come the players...

Scrap that. Real Madrid are winning again. Dani Carvajal with the goal.

For all the possession City had and the movement they did, they have not created enough chances in the first half.

Newcastle are defending the box well and they got a good reaction after conceding the goal.

Patience...

Former Arsenal striker Lucas Perez has just equalised for Alaves in the 66th minute against Real Madrid. He celebrated by putting a mask on and was shown a yellow card.

Gareth Bale is then given the hook... Follow that game live here.

A large round of applause from the home fans - yet another unexpected display from the men in black and white.

As for Pep Guardiola's side, what do they do about Allan Saint-Maximin?

At the moment he's having a field day on the left, while Jetro Willems is over-lapping with little bother. Will Kyle Walker position himself a little deeper after the break?

dzw: Kevin de Bruyne’s passing GPS needs a software patch. He’s doing all the right things but he can’t connect like he was earlier in the season.

And that ends the half. Brilliant stuff from Newcastle. Man City lacking bite. Big half coming up. Don't go anywhere!

Raheem Sterling tees up Kevin de Bruyne on the edge of the box. He hits it first time but three Newcastle players throw their bodies on the line to make the block.

The ball comes into the City box and John Stones doesn't quite clear it. It falls kindly for Miguel Almiron but he has to take a touch to get it under control.

He can't get it to sit up right and the chance to shoot goes begging before it's cleared. Just hit it!

Newcastle goalscorer Jetro Willems heads off to get some treatment. He'll be fine though. Riyad Mahrez takes the throw-in on the right but again, there's no space for City.

Kyle Walker is shoved aside by Allan Saint-Maximin and City have a free-kick, much to the dislike of the home crowd.

City take it quickly but it's too rushed. David Silva ends up poking it out for a throw-in the other way.

Raheem Sterling tip-toes his way along the edge of the box and pushes it out to Riyad Mahrez, who has a bit of space.

The winger drives towards the backline but his lifted cross is over everybody. Pep Guardiola turns and hangs his head on the touchline...

This isn't a blockbuster but it's such an intriguing game. Newcastle are playing brilliantly. They are soaking up the pressure, squeezing the space for City and throwing everything into their counter-attacks. Can they keep it up for 90 minutes?

Allan Saint-Maximin is a terror. He's causing all kinds of problems. He opens up space to have a run at Fernandinho but the Brazilian is equal to it.

Solid defending.

David Silva and Raheem Sterling are trying to walk it in. There's lots of nice touches, intricate flicks and smart shimmies in the box but not too many shots from close-range.

Again, the ball comes back out to Sterling on the edge but his shot bobbles wide. Benjamin Mendy then immediately wins a corner on the left.

Raheem Sterling has space on the edge of the box as he cuts onto his right foot. David Silva makes a distracting run to his left and Sterling takes the opportunity to shoot, curling it down the centre.

It's well held by Martin Dubravka, who was alert to the danger of Gabriel Jesus lurking for the rebound.
