Leandro Trossard
Brighton lead with a fine goal right at the end of the first half.
Joel Veltman plays a long ball to Leandro Trossard. The Belgian, with his back to goal on the corner of the box, spins around, beats Ciaran Clark too easily and curls one into the bottom corner from 20 yards.
Brighton 0-0 Newcastle
Isaac Hayden is replaced by Jeff Hendrick. Yves Bissouma looks pretty distraught at that, he signalled for a stretcher the moment he fell into Hayden.
Brighton 0-0 Newcastle
I've just seen a replay and it's so unlucky. Yves Bissouma was falling over from a tackle he made on someone else and just landed across the leg of Isaac Hayden.
Brighton 0-0 Newcastle
A stretcher is coming on. It looks like Isaac Hayden's knee. His day is definitely done here.
Brighton 0-0 Newcastle
It looks like Jeff Hendrick is getting ready.
Brighton 0-0 Newcastle
Newcastle midfielder Isaac Hayden looks in some pain and he needs treatment. I think he was accidentally caught by Yves Bissouma - but they haven't shown a replay.

Can't wait to see Newcastle score with their only shot and win this game. Brucey the Geordie Mourinho!

Big chance for Neal Maupay and Brighton. Leandro Trossard crosses to the Seagulls striker but he just hits his first-time shot straight at Ciaran Clark after Martin Dubravka had started diving. He should have been at least testing the keeper, probably scoring.

Quick to point out we have a defensive line up but no mention of the injuries to every starting attacker we have. I'm not his biggest fan but give Bruce a break. Injuries have ruined us this season.

Brighton half-clear, Jonjo Shelvey whips another cross in and Isaac Hayden heads into the side-netting.

Corner to Newcastle. This is genuinely their best chance of the game.

Teresa Crew: Has anyone told NUFC this is a must win game? Get this season over ASAP it’s too tiring to support Newcastle.
Brighton 0-0 Newcastle
Martin Dubravka is able to play on. Good news for Newcastle fans.
Brighton 0-0 Newcastle
Newcastle keeper Martin Dubravka is getting some treatment on his leg. He's only just recently returned from injury.
Brighton 0-0 Newcastle
It's just attack v defence. Lots of probing and crossing, lots of clearances.

TheTurboBear: To all you Newcastle fans begging for attacking football, who are you gonna attack with? Joelinton? Hayden? Bruce is doing his best with a really poor squad.
Brighton 0-0 Newcastle
Brighton cut Newcastle open again but luckily for the Magpies, Danny Welbeck barges over Jamaal Lascelles as they go for a cross so it's a free out.
Brighton 0-0 Newcastle
Adam Lallana plays in Neal Maupay. He goes one way and then tries to shuffle the ball back onto his right foot in the box but he's crowded out by three Newcastle defenders.

Newcastle's biggest game of the season and yet again Bruce has them set up like it's Gateshead playing Barcelona.

'I am a Seagull' would be a strange sentence to say to a non-football fan.
