  1. 'Richarlison a fantastic footballer'published at 18:24 British Summer Time 16 September 2023

    FT: Tottenham 2-1 Sheff Utd

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou to BBC MOTD after his side scored twice in stoppage time to beat Sheffield United:

    “There’s some real resilience and spirit within that group already which is great to see because they are a relatively new group.

    “And you get tested on days like this. It helps fuel belief for us to grow and our supporters have had an unforgettable day and all those things help in what we are trying to do."

    On Richarlison's impact in scoring one and setting up the other after a week in which the Brazilian admitted he needed to seek help for off-field struggles:

    “We’ve got to maintain a balance in life and even for him, he needs to understand his football is still good, he’s a fantastic footballer, he’s got so much to give and that can help ease the burden he’s feeling in other parts of his life, like so many of us.

    “I’m really pleased for him – I thought he did really well. We were obviously chasing a goal and getting some balls in the box and he’s always a threat in the air."

  2. HALF-TIMEpublished at 18:22 British Summer Time 16 September 2023

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Not a classic by any stretch as the first half ends goalless.

  3. Postpublished at 45+4 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Bruno Guimaraes goes down inside the box, prompting a roar from the home fans as they demand a penalty but Craig Pawson was immediately signalling to the Brazilian to get up.

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Brentford have a corner deep in first-half stoppage time and the ball is swung onto the head of Bryan Mbeumo, but he can't keep it down or on target.

  5. Postpublished at 45+1 min

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    A reasonable five minutes of time added on as Mark Flekken dives to punch away an inswinging cross into the box.

  6. Postpublished at 45 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Great bit of tidying up by Nathan Collins after Ethan Pinnock misses a header that threatens to send two Newcastle players clear. Collins reads the danger well to knock the ball back to his goalkeeper.

  7. Postpublished at 44 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Kieran Trippier thinks about a shot but instead opts to float the ball in. It is headed back to him and this time he does shoot, but well over.

  8. YELLOW CARDpublished at 43 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Christian Norgaard hacks down Harvey Barnes and is shown a swift yellow card and Newcastle have a free kick in a really good position.

    Ben: If Newcastle don't win today, then Eddie Howe will be rivalling ETH for early shock sacking of the season!

  10. 'We can only hope it isn't as serious as it looks'published at 18:12 British Summer Time 16 September 2023

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Don Goodman
    Former Wolves striker on Sky Sports

    He's been a real mainstay of their recent success Rico Henry. He must have been close to the England squad and can't have been far from Gareth Southgate's thinking for next summer. This doesn't look good at all, it's a concerning sight. We can only hope it isn't as serious as it looks.

  11. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 41 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    The good news is Rico Henry is able to get back up to his feet but he can't continue and hobbles off.

    On comes Mads Roerslev.

    This doesn't look good for Rico Henry. He appears to twist his knee as he tries to change direction. He's in a lot of pain and Brentford are preparing a substitution.

  13. Postpublished at 37 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    A better delivery this time by Kieran Trippier but the ball is headed away.

  14. Postpublished at 36 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Ben Mee is perhaps fortunate not to be booked as he slides through Bruno Guimaraes.

    The free kick is well worked down the right and Anthony Gordon wins a corner.

  15. YELLOW CARDpublished at 34 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Yoane Wissa is booked for catching Fabian Schar with a wayward arm.

    Schar has a cut lip and needs some treatment.

    And now Ethan Pinnock does well to hold off Callum Wilson one-on-one.

    All Newcastle now.

  17. GREAT SAVE!published at 31 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Another important intervention by Mark Flekken as he gets a glove to Harvey Barnes' dangerous low ball in.

    Without that touch by Flekken there were maybe two Newcastle players waiting to prod in.

  18. CLOSE!published at 29 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Bruno Guimaraes is picked out unmarked at the back post from the corner. He heads down towards goal but Mark Flekken denies him from point-blank range with his feet.

    Closest Newcastle have come!

    Fabian Schar is urged to shoot from 35 yards. He takes up the invitation but his low drive is deflected behind for a corner.

  20. Postpublished at 25 mins

    Newcastle 0-0 Brentford

    Some great footwork by Anthony Gordon as he skips a couple of challenges on the edge of the Brentford box. It is ultimately for nothing as the ball is worked back to halfway as Newcastle restart their attack.
