Newcastle United drew 3-3 with Liverpool at St James’ Park on Wednesday night - here are the player ratings from the match.
Eddie Howe made one change from the side that drew 1-1 with Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon with Jacob Murphy coming back into the side for the first time since October in place of Joe Willock. Alexander Isak kept his place in the starting line-up despite being forced off early against Palace with a knock to his hip.
Isak has scored twice in four appearances against Liverpool since joining Newcastle, including on his debut for the club.
And it was the Swede who opened the scoring with a devastating finish from outside the box after being found by Bruno Guimaraes. Newcastle had chances to extend their lead in the first half but the score remained 1-0 heading in at the break.
Five minutes after the restart, Liverpool drew level with Curtis Jones arriving late in the box to make it 1-1 via a deflection.
Gordon then made amends for his wasted opportunity in the first half by putting Newcastle back in front after being slipped in by Isak.
But Newcastle’s lead lasted just five minutes as Mohamed Salah poked Liverpool level before completing the comeback with a tidy finish into the bottom left corner to make it 3-2.
Fabian Schar then equalised for Newcastle in the last minute of normal time to turn in from Guimaraes’ free-kick.

An outstanding first half display capped off with a devastating finish. Played a smart ball through to Jacob Murphy.
