Newcastle 1 Wolves 1 – Watch the official match highlights here

It ended Newcastle 1 Wolves 1 on Sunday.

Newcastle scoring in a rare brief spell of pressure in the first half.

A couple of corners followed by a superb cross from Fernandez and a dominant headed finish by Lascelles.

Terrible negative tactics from Steve Bruce invited Wolves to attack and find a way back into the game.

Sure enough, after a few close shaves Newcastle eventually conceded.

Martin Dubravka could have done better with the cross but when you set your team out so negatively, an equaliser is almost guaranteed.

Allan Saint-Maximin one of the few positives for Newcastle, even though little or no end product.
