00:00With both clubs sitting on 12 points, Newcastle welcomed Brighton to St. James' Park.
00:06Gordon it is to take it, and it's gone just wide by Danvon.
00:13The Magpies controlled much of the action in the opening 45, but were unable to break through.
00:19So was that Isak, but Brooken spread himself.
00:23That's a really big chance, he's going school.
00:25And just moments later at the other end,
00:28Danny Welbeck wasn't going to be denied his chance to put the Seagulls ahead.
00:33Forcing his way through, well that's football isn't it?
00:38Totally and utterly against the run of play, it's Brighton who scored first.
00:45Newcastle are unbeaten at home in 11,
00:48but despite a number of chances they couldn't find the finish to start the second.
00:54Murphy for Isak, deflected and saved.
00:58And Geraldinton it's blocked.
01:00Gordon and Geraldinton fires over.
01:04Later bad news for Brighton as Welbeck went down with an injury and was forced to leave.
01:09You really don't want to lose them for any length of time.
01:12Meanwhile Nick Pope was doing what he could to keep Newcastle in it.
01:16I think it hit his head.
01:18It's an extraordinary incident.
01:19In the end though, the visitors managed to hang on and move into fifth spot on the table.
01:26It's an extraordinary victory here for Fabian Hertzler.
