Newcastle survives a fright to see Birmingham in the FA Cup thriller – FlashScore.com

Joe Willock collected a bracelet while Newcastle United struggled from a goal down in 40 seconds to beat Birmingham City third level 3-2 in St. Andrew on Saturday and reach the fifth round of the English Fa Cup.

League 1 Birmingham leaders shocked their opponents in the Premier League, which made nine changes in the country that defeated Arsenal in the middle of the week to reach the League Cup finals when Ethan Laord found the result of the first corner of the game.

In a quick and frantic first half, Willock equalized the results in a controversial way.

Goalkeeper Bailey Paun Farel parked his shot, but the assistant recording noted that the ball had crossed the line and without VAR at this stage of the race, the goal was standing.

Kalum Wilson stabbed at home five minutes later to send Newcastle 2-1 up, but Birmingham leveled in the 40th minute by long-term hit by Tomoki Iva, who did not give goalkeeper Nick Pope’s chance.

Willock grabbed his second game in the 82nd minute to see the magician.

The 12 minutes of extra time gave Birmingham a chance, but Newcastle was holding a company by scoring a goal scorer Alexander Isaac for the last seconds when William Owla came out after a head of heads.

“It was a difficult game for us, mentally, physically. Today you can see that several of the players were on the edge,” said Newcastle manager Eddie How BBC SportS

“I thought it would be a difficult night before the match and we admitted within a minute. We knew it made it double, because the atmosphere of the stadium completely changed, at first it was electric.

“At halftime it was just about being more relaxed. I think we were a little worried, the game became a little emotional to us … We had to be calm and control the game and thought we did so much better in the second half time .
