The points were shared at St James' Park as Newcastle and Man City drew 3-3 on Sunday.

The visitors opened the scoring in just the fifth minute after Ilkay Gundogan slotted home from close range.

But Miguel Almiron levelled proceedings when Allan Saint-Maximin brilliantly picked him out in the 28th minute.

The dazzling French winger then found Callum Wilson, who made no mistake in front of goal to put his side in the lead before the break.

In the second half, Kieran Trippier converted a spectacular free-kick to improve their lead.

However, the Blues hit back in sensational fashion - scoring two goals in the space of four minutes.
