Andy Carroll picks up Callum Wilson who is sat down taking a few deep breaths on the pitch. Karl Darlow comes across to give him a cuddle too.

Steve Bruce isn't thumping the air but he'll be very relieved. A really encouraging performance from Newcastle.

Massive win for Newcastle.

Callum Wilson carries the ball, skipping past Michael Keane and almost reaching the corner before he's eventually stopped.

He's been so, so good today.

Much better from Jonjo Shelvey this time. He curls it over the bar but it's not too far away.

At the other end, Lucas Digne wins a corner off Jeff Hendrick.

Shaun Forster: Can somebody justify to me why Everton are putting both centre halves in their own box just to lay the ball off to Pickford at goal kicks?

Game of Throw-ins: As soon as I saw Wilson was one goal away from 50 and Newcastle winless in 8, it was inevitable. Why do we always do this to ourselves Everton?

Neil, Preston: I don't understand Everton fans complaining they are having a fantastic season and anyone can beat anyone this season

Michael Keane brings down Callum Wilson outside the Everton box. Good work from him again.

Newcastle taking their time...

FIVE minutes to go. Jeez.

All good. Yellow card stands. Nothing from Yerry Mina.

Jeff Hendrick comes flying in on Richarlison. He gets there first but his boot is over the ball.

The referee had his card straight out but VAR is stepping in. They are checking Yerry Mina's off-the-ball tussle with Callum Wilson and that challenge from Hendrick.

It should be 2-0!!!

Allan Saint-Maximin's pressing forces Seamus Coleman to lose the ball. Jonjo Shelvey picks it up and feeds in Miguel Almiron.

He waits for the run of Callum Wilson and then slips him in. He's one-on-one with Jordan Pickford, goes round him but his chip it deflected off the post!

Phillip Broeders: Everton being Everton. Lose to the team who haven't won in 8 games.

Damian Fogerty: That’s as good a headed goal as we’ve seen for ages.

Reverend Leroy: I don't dare celebrate until the final whistle goes, the teams are off the pitch, everyone's changed, the players get back on the coach and the lights in the stadium are turned off.

And now Fabian Schar wins a free-kick, inviting a sliding challenge from Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

Newcastle won't rush anything now.

James Rodriguez finds Richarlison. He lays it off to Lucas Digne but his cut-back is intercepted by Fabian Schar.

It's loose and Richarlison almost gets there but Schar reacts to make the block and wins a goalkick.

Gylfi Sigurdsson's corner is punched away by Karl Darlow. It comes to Lucas Digne outside the box and he ends up lashing it miles over the bar.

Lucas Digne has space to curl it in from the left again. Comfortable for Karl Darlow though.

Brilliant from Miguel Almiron. He tracks back all the way, robs it off James Rodriguez inside his own area, drives out wide and wins a free-kick.

Rodriguez is in the book for it. He's not happy.

Seamus Coleman cuts it back into the box from the right but Isaac Hayden is there to pick it up.

Gylfi Sigurdsson has the ball at his feet again though and it's switched back around to Coleman.

This time Fabian Schar makes an important interception to stop Dominic Calvert-Lewin putting it in from close range.

This was a superb header from Callum Wilson. It's his third big chance of the game but finally he's made one of them count and Jordan Pickford had absolutely no chance.

There was a huge roar of relief from Steve Bruce.

You have to say that on the balance of play it's deserved.
