The penalty kick is tied! The fourth place in the Premier League is overturned, one point behind, and missed the opportunity to surpass Manchester City

A match in the 35th round of the Premier League began, and Newcastle United challenged Brighton as a guest. Newcastle United ranked 4th in the first 34 league games. This makes Newcastle United a highly competitive team among the Fifth Group. Newcastle United has won 7 games in the last 8 games and is in a very good shape. This time Newcastle United faces the powerful Brighton. As a result, Newcastle United only got one draw and missed the goal to surpass Manchester City, trailing by 1 point.

Newcastle United lined up a 433 offensive formation. Harvey Barnes, Isaac and Jacob Murphy's offensive tridents jointly attacked. Joseph Willok, Tonali and Guimarães formed three midfielders. Livramento, Dan Bourne, Fabian Schell and Trippier started the game with four defenders. Pope serves as the starting goalkeeper. Wilson and Anthony Gordon sat on the bench. In the 10th minute of the game, Barnes broke into the left side of the penalty area and shot low in the far corner, slightly off. In the 26th minute, Willoke broke into the penalty area and completed a shot with his outside instep, but he kicked high. Two minutes later, Brighton scored a goal! Mingte cut in the penalty area and shot from the far corner, and the ball entered the net! The goalkeeper did not react at all. This shot angle is really tricky. In the 32nd minute, Weifer was shown a yellow card after delaying his time. This is also the only yellow card in the first half. At the end of the half, Newcastle United fell behind 0-1.

The second half will be changed and the side will be played again. In the 51st minute, Weifer shoveled fiercely, but the referee did not give the card. Then, Weifell was replaced and Lamptai came on as a substitute. In the 56th minute, Newcastle United made a substitution adjustment, and Anthony Gordon came on as a substitute and replaced Jacob Murphy. Then, Anthony Gordon was kicked down and the referee awarded a penalty, but after VAR confirmation, the penalty kick was cancelled and the free kick outside the penalty area was changed.

In the 69th minute, Brighton made a substitution adjustment. Yasin Ayari and Feltman came on as substitutes to replace Jack Hinshelwood and Adinggra. Then, the referee awarded a penalty kick, but after watching the replay, it was determined that Willok was faked to fall. In the 85th minute, Ayari handballed in the penalty area and the referee awarded a penalty kick. Isaac took the penalty and made a steady punishment, saving Newcastle United. In the end, Newcastle United 1-1 Brighton.
