Aston Villa v Newcastle LIVE: Premier League score and latest updates from thrilling match

GOAL! Aston Villa 4-1 Newcastle (Amadou Onana, 75 mins)
And suddenly it’s 4-1! This is getting out of hand for Newcastle.
Rogers probably should score as he jinks inside his man and shoots from 10 yards but Pope makes a really good stop with his foot.
The ball then falls to Ramsey, he lays it back to Onana and it’s a brilliant curled effort into the top corner! Classy, classy finish

GOAL! Aston Villa 3-1 Newcastle (Dan Burn own goal, 73 mins)
That is surely game, set and match. Ramsey runs at his man down the left wing and puts a low ball across the box where Tielemans turns it goalwards.
It’s not a clean hit but it hits poor Dan Burn and spins into the bottom corner. Probably an own goal, although I’m sure Tielemans will try to claim it. Villa celebrate and appear to be giving their Champions League hopes a real boost

Aston Villa 2-1 Newcastle, 71 mins
Trippier curls in a Newcastle corner but it;s too deep and Guimaraes can’t keep it int.
Villa make a double change as Amadou Onana and Jacob Ramsey enter the fray in place of John McGinn and Marco Asensio. Can they help see this game out?

Aston Villa 2-1 Newcastle, 66 mins
Newcastle were preparing a sub before that goal and make it anyway – Anthony Gordon on for Murphy, who has been quieter than usual today.
Gordon is now needed to try and find an equaliser.

GOAL! Aston Villa 2-1 Newcastle (Ian Maatsen, 65 mins)
Villa lead once more and it’s well-deserved. Maatsen has a diesel engine and he overlaps Watkins down the left, who slips him in.
Then it’s a first-time strike with his left foot beyond Pope for a lovely, and important, goal.

Aston Villa 1-1 Newcastle, 64 mins
Lovely link-up between Guimaraes and Joelinton before the former feeds it to Isak on the left of his box but his shot is easily held by Martinez.
Guimaraes feels like he was caught just after he released the ball to Isak and he reacts by going in late on Tielemans himself. A booking for Bruno

SAVE! Aston Villa 1-1 Newcastle, 62 mins
McGinn probably should do better here. He makes a great run to get half a yard of space form his defender, the ball comes through and he hits it from the edge of the box but doesn’t catch it properly. Straight at Pope, who can push it away.
Shortly after, Rogers strikes from outside the area but it’s straight at Pope again.

This is Jason Tindall’s big moment
A big 30 minutes for Jason Tindall. So far everything has gone smoothly in his time in charge. He has been able to pick unchanged teams. Newcastle have won. Now this game could down to substitutions.

OFF THE LINE! Aston Villa 1-1 Newcastle, 54 mins
Tonali is in the perfect place at the perfect time as Tielemans gets his head to a Villa corner and flicks it towards the far post where the Italian clears off the line.
It may have been going just wide but Tonali couldn’t be sure and did the right thing in clearing it.

Aston Villa 1-1 Newcastle, 52 mins
Guimaraes tries to burrow his way between defenders but Mings is eventually strong enough to muscle him off the ball and Martinez can smother it.
It’s still an end-to-end game and Rogers slides a clever ball through for McGinn who wins a corner at the by-line.
Tielemans curls ina decent cross but the Newcastle defence does its job to clear
