Full-time: #NUFC 2-0 #CFC A far-from straightforward 2nd half for #NUFC, but they found a way in the end against 10-man Chelsea (who were improved after the break). Massive in the context of potential CL qualification. 1 win in last 2 all-but guarantees a top-5 spot. #NEWCHE

Wilson & Longstaff come on for Guimaraes & Isak. #NUFC #NEWCHE #CFC

#NUFC 2-0 #CFC The board for five minutes of added time goes up just as the crowd jump up in celebration of Newcastle's second goal. Guimaraes has the ball on left-hand edge of the box, shapes to shoot, curls an effort, which deflects & loops over Sanchez. Huge goal. #NEWCHE

GOAL! GUIMARAES! #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

#NUFC missing Joelinton & his physicality, as @GeorgeCaulkin has rightly just said to my right. The seconds are ticking by & #NUFC are labouring a bit. Krafth goes into the book. #CFC #NEWCHE

Fernandez goes close to an equaliser, forcing a save from Pope on the stretch with a fierce shot from a tight angle on the left. #NUFC living dangerously. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

Barnes takes a heavy touch in the box after being played into space by Miley. #NUFC lacking that clinical edge at the moment. Final ball has been off. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

Final ball is still lacking for #NUFC, who are starting to find gaps in a tiring Chelsea side again. Sancho & Gusto are coming on for Chelsea, who are going for it in search of an equaliser. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

Lovely ball from Murphy to send Guimaraes in down the right-hand side of the box with a beautiful lobbed pass, but Guimaraes snatches at the chance & fires it over. Move was started by Guimaraes' outside-of-the-boot pass, mind. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

#NUFC have definitely lost their way a bit. Struggling to hold on to the ball & are inviting Chelsea on at times. Definitely could do with a second. Chelsea growing in belief. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

65: #NUFC sub - it is not Murphy, it is Gordon who makes way for Krafth. Murphy goes right-wing, Barnes left-wing, with Krafth at right-back. Gordon's first start since the start of March, so physical exertion likely to be the reason again. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

Tindall telling Newcastle to calm down & "take your time" from the touchline. Looks like Krafth may be coming on soon, presumably to cover defensively at right-back. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

Big save from Pope down to his left to deny Cucurella. Chelsea played between the lines, dissecting #NUFC, then the ball went out to the left, where Cucurella shot low through bodies, but Pope reacted well to parry down low. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

#NUFC lacking a bit of energy & intensity at the moment. Giving the ball away too easily & Chelsea are enjoying a few decent attacks. Barnes gets involved for the first time in the second half, but his low cross on the break goes straight to Sanchez. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

Isak mistimes another volley - he hasn't quite been at it today. Tonali floats a corner to the back post, Isak is unmarked, he sets himself, & then shanks a mishit shot over the bar. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

55: Miley is on for Sven Botman. His first start since early-February, & he receives a standing ovation (doesn't look injured). Looks like Newcastle are shifting to a back four, with Murphy at right-back. Miley goes to right-sided No 8, Guimaraes left. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE

Lewis Miley is coming on for #NUFC. #NUFC #CFC #NEWCHE
