Southampton 2-0 Newcastle
Nathan Redmond plays it through to Che Adams. He wins a corner off Federico Fernandez.
Stuart Armstrong
It's a shambles from Newcastle again. Sean Longstaff doesn't know what to do with it on the edge of his own box and tries to turn back inside under pressure.
He leaves the ball behind and Stuart Armstrong is there to nick it off him. He has quick feet to dance past the first defender then gains a yard on the second, before firing it into the bottom right corner.
Brilliant finish.
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Allan Saint-Maximin goes down after running into Jan Bednarek. He was clutching his knee but he's up and jogging about.

Matt: How have VAR dismissed that penalty check so quickly?! Clear foul on Walcott!
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Andy Carroll is on for Callum Wilson, who might have picked up a knock. Joelinton is also on for Jacob Murphy.

Seen a few angles on replay now. That looks like a penalty but clearly those in Stockley Park have it in HD...
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Stuart Armstrong is through! He feints to shoot himself and instead tries to tee up Theo Walcott.
Jamaal Lascelles slides across and makes the block. Southampton want a penalty. It's gone to VAR for a check and nothing's been given.
Judging by the replay, they should have one!? Lascelles doesn't get much of the ball (if any) and he's come right through Walcott. Hmm. Weird one.
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Nathan Redmond is on for nutmeg king Moussa Djenepo.
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Moussa Djenepo has been lively tonight. He spins on the touchline and nutmegs Jacob Murphy.
That'll be a gif later.
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Jacob Murphy and Miguel Almiron are over it but it's Murphy who takes. He tries to beat the wall but Southampton jump up in unison and block it.

Graham: Newcastle cannot continue to rely on Darlow to keep them in games if they can’t do anything at the other end of the pitch. Eventually a goal will go in and they’ll have nothing to offer in response.
Oliver: Bruce moving Saint-Maximin up to play alongside Wilson was a terrible shout. He's so much more effective coming from deep, running at defences at speed.
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Jacob Murphy squeezes a cross in from the right and Callum Wilson is the target. It's cleared only as far as Matty Longstaff and Stuart Armstrong concedes a free-kick right on the edge of Southampton's area for a needless push.
Chance here for Newcastle!
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Allan Saint-Maximin tries to create something for Newcastle. He pushes it on to Miguel Almiron but Kyle Walker-Peters is across to cover.
It comes back to Saint-Maximin but he pokes it out for a goal kick. He's not been great tonight.

Newcastle have got two midfielders sitting in now, Miguel Almiron has gone out wide and they're obviously trying to deal with that midfield overload and try and get a grip on the possession and get back into this game.
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Jan Bednarek gets his head onto it at the near post and it's great reactions from Karl Darlow, who gets two hands to it and pushes it away.
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Lovely stuff again.
James Ward-Prowse through to Stuart Armstrong. He whips it in early towards Theo Walcott but Fabian Schar slides in to clear.
Corner.
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Matty Longstaff is on for Jeff Hendrick.
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
James Ward-Prowse lays it off to Moussa Djenepo as Southampton break quickly through the middle.
Djenepo goes down in the box and appeals for a penalty for contact from Jacob Murphy.
The ref is having none of it.
Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
Yet more good football from Southampton. It's played around nicely at the back - one-touch passing - before James Ward-Prowse signals and whips it down the line.
Che Adams looked offside but there's no flag and he pings it over to the left for Moussa Djenepo.
He wins a corner but the delivery is too deep when it eventually comes in.

That is an unbelievable shot and an unbelievable save. If he didn't get those fingertips on it that's going top bins. Again Newcastle dispossess the ball in a stupid area, Oriol Romeu picks it up, 25-yards-out, one touch, smashes it, great shot, execution perfect, but the save - Karl Darlow is keeping Newcastle in the game with that save.
