    Newcastle made their own problems there. Schar did well there to stop Haaland with some patient defending.

    Man City 2-0 Newcastle

    Erling Haaland latches onto a loose ball, drives into the area and has a go.

    He's off balance with his left foot and it's deflected out for a corner, which comes to nothing.

    I'm amazed Lewis Hall hasn't played more for Newcastle.

  4. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 18:53 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Man City 2-0 Newcastle

    Eddie Howe has seen enough and he's going to hook four players off here.

    Off come Anthony Gordon, Sean Longstaff, Joe Willock and Dan Burn.

    On come Lewis Miley, Lewis Hall, Miguel Almiron and Elliott Anderson.

    Lovely stuff from Manchester City. A deft little pass from Phil Foden finds Ruben Dias, who drives forward but can't find a way through himself so plays it out wide.

    Kyle Walker whips one across and Martin Dubravka does really well to punch it away.

    Miguel Almiron is warming up on the touchline as the rain teems down in Manchester.

    It needs a wonder goal or a forced mistake or anything just to give Newcastle some hope.

    Ahhh that would've been an opportunity for Newcastle.

    Lovely ball over the top from Bruno Guimaraes, Alexander Isak lays it off for Dan Burn but the defender opts to give it back to Isak instead of shoot and it's just ahead of the Sweden striker.

    He should've had a go himself.

  9. 'Poor defending from Botman'published at 18:45 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    A bit sloppy again. There's a lot of deflections there. A deflected cross, then a miss-kick, then Gvardiol's shot takes a deflection. Poor defending from Botman.

    Oh dear, Newcastle make a bit of a hash of trying to clear Bernardo Silva's cross.

    It drops for Josko Gvardiol whose shot takes another deflection and flies out for a corner.

  11. 'That's where City are most dangerous'published at 18:43 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    It is a breakaway from Newcastle and that's arguably where City are most dangerous with City in their half. Haaland was unlucky there.

    Doku is fabulous in the build up, so threatening, but there is rarely any end result. Pep's coaching team will iron that out.

  13. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 51 mins

    Man City 2-0 Newcastle

    Erling Haaland picks up the ball from Mateo Kovacic in the middle of the park and drives forward.

    He strikes low and hard with his left foot but it clips the outside of the post. Unlucky.

  14. 'Newcastle need to stick to the plan'published at 18:40 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Newcastle need to just stick to the plan. Keep battling, keep working hard.

    Jeremy Doku is still causing a lot of problems for this Newcastle defence. He's popping up all over the shop.

  16. 'Really positive from Doku'published at 18:39 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Danny Murphy
    Former England midfielder on BBC One

    Great save, great move. Really, really positive again from Doku. It's a great save from Dubravka's left hand. So inventive, so creative, he's so hard to play against.

    No changes for either side at the break.

    Manchester City have started this half much the same as the first ended, dominating possession and creating chances.

    Lovely bit of one-two between Phil Foden and Jeremy Doku and the Belgian fires towards the far corner from the left-hand side, forcing Martin Dubravka into a good save.

  18. KICK-OFFpublished at 18:35 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March

    Back under way for the second half.

    Newcastle have surely got to go for it, nothing to lose here.

    The second goal, Dubravka is saving easily if it isn't for that deflection.

    If you haven't got perfection against this City side, you are going to get punished.
