    The replays show it's Kieran Trippier who was playing Chris Wood onside for his third goal of the afternoon.

    Newcastle should take a close look at this Wood fella. Looks decent.

    Chris Wood

    HAT-TRICK!

    Murillo plays it over the top of the Newcastle defence and Chris Wood skips past Martin Dubravka to slot home.

    There's a VAR check to make sure Wood is onside, and after a couple of minutes, Chris Kavanaugh signals to the centre-circle.

    What a performance this is turning into for Nottingham Forest.

    Good goalkeeping from Matt Turner. He races off his line to punch away a threatening Kieran Trippier cross.

    It's the counter attack for Nottingham Forest. You know it's coming but you've got to be set up for it.

    Eddie Howe has seen enough.

    Miguel Almiron and Dan Burn are off. Callum Wilson and Tino Livramento are on.

    Chris Wood

    It's a delightful ball from Anthony Elanga through the Newcastle defence.

    But Chris Wood still has a lot to do against his former side as he twists in and out before lifting the ball over Martin Dubravka.

    That was a lovely goal.

    That's another incredible opening for Nottingham Forest. They're letting Newcastle off the hook.

    Nottingham Forest break again and this time it's Anthony Elanga who gets a shot off. It lacks any real power, though, and does nothing to worry Martin Dubravka.

    What on earth is Miguel Almiron doing? Ola Aina whips in a cross and it looks like Almiron is having a shot on his own goal.

    It ricochets off Anthony Elanga before Danilo has a shot blocked.

    The assistant referee raises his flag, indicating Aina had taken the ball out of play.

    If Eddie Howe had any sense, he'll taken Burn off at half time. Elanga has got him on toast, all of Forest's attacks are coming down that side.

    Bad news, Tom - Dan Burn is still on.

    Chris Wood has another Boxing Day goal, scoring on the same day last year. For Newcastle...

    He's come back to haunt the Magpies. The ghost of Christmas past.

    Sheffield United v Luton (15:00 GMT)

    Neil Johnston
    BBC Sport at Bramall Lane

    It's a lovely crisp winter's afternoon in Sheffield where the hosts face Luton in a titanic match at the bottom.

    Sheffield United started the day bottom of the table and five points from safety, while the Hatters are 18th but with momentum on the rise following Saturday's 1-0 victory over Newcastle.

    Premier League history is being made in this match, with Sam Allison taking charge to become the first black referee in the top flight for 15 years.

    The 42-year-old is a former player with Swindon, Bristol City, Bournemouth and Exeter.

    Awful defending from. Newcastle for the goal. Somebody needed to go and try close Gibbs White down but instead they all kept backtracking. Schoolboy stuff.

    What an exciting end-to-end first half that was.

    Anthony Elanga has been the driving force behind Nottingham Forest's efforts, setting up Chris Wood's equaliser, while Alexander Isak has been the home side's star man.
