    Southampton get in down the right as Samuel Edozie gets away from Dan Burn but Fabian Schar mops up.

    So red for Bruno for that challenge, fair enough. But really highlights the shocking lack of quality and consistency with the officials when you have that and the exact same challenge from Fabinho at the weekend.

    Rob, London

    Will Bruno miss the final after the red card?

    Andrew, Durham

    Guimaraes will serve his suspension in Newcastle's upcoming Premier League games.

  3. Newcastle 2-1 Southampton (Agg 3-1)

    Are we going to have any late drama here? Or will Newcastle see this one safely out?

  4. Newcastle 2-1 Southampton (Agg 3-1)

    Bruno Guimaraes was not happy about that decision that was also greeted by a chorus of boos around St James' Park.

    I think it is a red.

    I don't think Guimaraes did it deliberately but the referee is within his rights to say he is not in control.

  6. RED CARD

    That yellow card for Bruno Guimaraes is upgraded to a red. Newcastle are down to 10 men.

    This decision is going to be reviewed.

  8. Newcastle 2-1 Southampton (Agg 3-1)

    Oh that looks nasty. Bruno Guimaraes is going to get a yellow here. He's left one one Samuel Edozie. That'll be at least a yellow.

    It's a great run.

    There were players in front of Guimaraes but he wasn't releasing that ball. If it was inside the post then the keeper was not getting there.

  10. HITS THE WOODWORK

    Newcastle 2-1 Southampton (Agg 3-1)

    That would surely have sealed Newcastle's place at Wembley.

    Bruno Guimaraes picks up possession in acres of space and clips the outside of the Southampton post with a left-footed curler.

  11. SUBSTITUTION

    Newcastle 2-1 Southampton (Agg 3-1)

    A fourth Southampton change. Joe Aribo comes on for Ibrahima Diallo.

    Don't think Man Utd will be worrying too much (with respect NFFC) after watching this!

    Ahhh Newcastle. You never make this easy for us huh

  13. Newcastle 2-1 Southampton (Agg 3-1)

    Big shout for a penalty as knock-down in the Southampton penalty area appears to flick off the arm of Mohammed Salisu.

    While the fans are in uproar about that Sean Longstaff zings an effort towards goal from 20 yards but Saints keeper Gavin Bazunu scrambles across to save.

  14. 'That was a big moment'

    It's a beautiful reverse pass to Armstong.

    That was a big moment.

    If Newcastle didn't know beforehand, then they know now. This game is not over.

  15. Newcastle 2-1 Southampton (Agg 3-1)

    What. A. Chance.

    Romeo Lavia cuts the Newcastle defence apart with a superb pass into Adam Armstrong but the Saints forward can't lift the ball over Nick Pope who saves.

    It looked easier to go round the Newcastle keeper to be honest.

    The former Magpies forward can't believe it.

  16. Newcastle 2-1 Southampton (Agg 3-1)

    Saints captain James Ward-Prowse whips a free-kick into the Newcastle box but almost immediately referee Paul Tierney blows up. He's spotted Mohammed Salisu pulling Joelinton's shirt.

    What a waste.

  17. Newcastle 2-1 Southampton (Agg 3-1)

    Newcastle have lost their momentum in this match but Southampton are yet to put them under any real defensive pressure.

    Southampton are the better team by a distance in this second half. They have got much more control of the ball. They haven't created many chances but they didn't in the first half and still managed to score.

    Allan Saint-Maximin ignores Dan Burn's underlap and comes forward down the left for the hosts but then overdoes it and loses possession.
