Newcastle United are drawing 1-1 with Brighton & Hove Albion at half-time - here are the player ratings from the Premier League encounter at St James’ Park so far.
Joel Veltman gave Brighton the lead early on before Sean Longstaff drew Newcastle level on the stroke of half-time.
Eddie Howe made one change from the Newcastle side that beat Burnley 4-1 last weekend with Elliot Anderson coming back into the starting line-up in place of the injured Callum Wilson. Kieran Trippier returned to the bench after more than two months out with a calf injury.
Newcastle went behind early on as Joel Veltman poked the ball in from a corner to make it 1-0 to Brighton.
The Magpies had made a positive start to the game but Brighton had chances to extend their lead further in the first half before Sean Longstaff grabbed an equaliser for the hosts. Anthony Gordon slipped in Elliot Anderson to square the ball for Longstaff to tap in to make it 1-1 at half-time.
It saw Newcastle score in every Premier League home game during a season for the first time.
Here are the Newcastle United half-time player ratings from the match so far (ratings updated at full-time)...
9. Jacob Murphy - 5
Got into some dangerous areas down the right but has lacked the killer pass or shot. Saw a tame effort saved by Bart Verbruggen. | Getty Images
10. Anthony Gordon - 6
Newcastle's biggest threat but not to his usual high standards. Looked like he'd done too much before slipping in Anderson to set-up Longstaff. Despite the key pass, his decision making could have been better in general. Found the net late on but was denied by the offside flag. | Getty Images
11. Alexander Isak - 6
Saw a decent effort saved by the the Brighton goalkeeper. Not had too many chances but played a teasing ball into the box which was almost turned into the net by Tariq Lamptey. Hooked off with just over 20 minutes remaining despite Newcastle having no other striker options. | Getty Images
12. Miguel Almiron - 6
On for Murphy 68: Won a corner with a close ranged effort that was parried. Penalised for offside as he squared the ball to Gordon for a disallowed goal in the closing stages. Booked for simulation. Photo: George Wood
