Dembele misses from three yards
Dembele got ahead of Schar but missed from close range after Hernadez’s cross. The official raised his flag for offside shortly after but it would have been a tight call for VAR to look at if the ball had ended up in the net.
21:41
More dogged defending from the Magpies
Newcastle are continuing to battle in the final minutes of the game. PSG are probing but they are met with a determined Newcastle rearguard that is refusing to be breached.
Pot shots from range are the only things the Ligue 1 side can muster at the minute.
21:36
We’re into the last 15 minutes
You can’t help but feel there’s going to be another goal in this one. PSG have looked most likely as they camp outside the Newcastle box.
But the Magpies could easily grab a second on the break.
21:33
PSG are appealing again
This time for a hand ball. Quick check from VAR and it’s no penalty again. Donarumma is shown a yellow card for his protests.
21:30
NO PENALTY!
Reprieve for Newcastle. Replays showed it could easily have been a spot-kick.
21:29
Oooh there’s a penalty shout for PSG
It’s a massive moment in the game. Hakimi went down and the referee waved the protests away.
21:28
Unbelievable from Pope
Wow! What a save from the Newcastle stopper. He managed to block Barcola’s effort from point blank range after Mbappe had turned his defender inside and out.
Pope had no right to stop that one.

21:26
A rare shot from Newcastle
Almiron flashed a volley wide of Donarumma’s net after Hernandez failed to clear on the edge o fhis area. It would have been some goal from the Newcastle man if he has managed to get the effort on target.
21:24
PSG look threatening when they play at speed
The home side got into a dangerous position after speeding up their play down the left. Lee cut inside before delivering a cross into the box but his pass found a sea of Newcastle defenders.
It’s not much, but it’s at least something from the French side.
21:22
Enrique turns to his bench
Vitinha on for Ugarte and Barcola on for Kolo Muani
21:20
Skriniar booked

Newcastle escape
Pope makes another big save after quickly coming off his line to thwart Dembele. PSG finally sped up their attack and found some joy.

PSG caution
Lee gets himself a yellow card after pulling back Guimaraes.
21:15

Enrique will have to make a change.
21:12
The Toon are enjoying themselves in Paris
And why shouldn’t they be? It’s been a fine display from their side.
21:10
Miley doesn’t look out of place
The youngster has gone about his work with ease at the middle of the Newcastle side. Still only 17-yeard-old, he already looks a real player.
21:08
Nearly an early chance for Isak
Smart play from the visitors played in Isak who had isolated Danilo on the edge of the srea. The forward decided to cut back inside when he really should have had a shot on goal.
PSG managed to scramble the ball away and are thankful the Swede didn’t try his luck from range.
21:06
Second half underway
Newcastle kick things off.
20:59
It’s all change in Group F
AC Milan’s equaliser against Dortmund at the San Siro and Newcastle’s lead against PSG has lifted the Premier League side into second place in the group.

HT: PSG 0-1 Newcastle
What a thrilling first-half of action in Paris! The visitors grabbed the goal their play deserved after some quality approach play from Livramento and a mistake from Donarumma in the PSG net.
The hosts started the half well and finished it strongly, carving Newcastle open on a couple of ocassions but finding either Pope or a Magpies defender blocking the goal.
Howe’s side are likely to find more spaces in the second half as PSG look to get themselves back in the game. It’s been a perfect display so far by the Magpies, can they keep it up?

20:50
Goal saving block from Schar
The defender knew nothing about it but they won’t care, he saved Dembele’s goal-bound effort.

Lucky escape for Newcastle at the end of the first half.
20:47
Three minutes added on
The Magpies have a corner at the end of the half. They look in good shape at the minute.
20:46
PSG pressure to finish the half
The home side are laying siege to the Newcastle box but they can’t find a way through. Ugarte just had a shot from 25 yards before Fabio Ruiz had an effort of his own from a similar range.
Howe won’t be too upset to see PSG resorting to those kind of efforts.
20:43
AC Milan level it up at the San Siro
The complexion of Group F changes once more. Milan’s leveller and Newcastle’s goal in Paris sees them climb up to second in the group.
20:42
Seven minutes to go in the half
It’s been a perfect display so far by Newcastle. PSG have had the lion’s share of the ball but they’ve not been able to replicate the threat they showed in the opening minutes.
Mbappe hasn’t got into the game just yet.
20:38
Ugarte joins Joelinton in the book
Almiron is too sharp for the PSG midfielder. He just got his toe to the ball ahead of Ugarte who clattered into him.
20:34
Superb save from Pope
It’s franic in Paris! Dembele this time with the effort from range after running through Newcastle’s defence.
The Newcastle stopper got his outstretched right arm to sav and managed to clear the ball away from the onrushing PSG attackers.
20:32
What a block by Miley
The 17-year-old got in the way of Lee’s effort as PSG bombarded the Newcastle box. The linesman eventually lifted his flag for an offside in the build up but the youngster wasn’t to know.
20:30
Ugarte strikes in anger
The home side are rattled. Ugarte attempted an ambious volley from 30 yards in a clear sign of their agitation after Newcastle’s opener. The awy side are looking composed.
Next objective is getting to break ahead.
20:25
GOAL! PSG 0-1 Newcastle (Isak)
What a moment for Isak and Newcastle. The Magpies get their noses in front thanks to great play from Livramento who weaved through the PSG defence before laying a pass off to Almiron.

20:14
Isak wastes a golden chance
The forward had to score. The Swede fired his effort over the bar from inside the six-yard area after Almiron had won the ball back from Hakimi.
The Newcastle winger fired the cross into the box but Isak really should have put Newcastle ahead.

20:11
Great save from Pope
The Newcastle stopper keeps the scores level after the away side was carved open for the first time tonight. Hakimi linked up wonderfully with Kolo Muani before playing the ball into the centre where Mbappe waited.
The superstar back-heeled his effort but Pope was equal to it. Big save from the England international.
20:08
Newcastle need to get their foot on the ball
PSG are swarming all over the vistors right now. Newcastle have managed to gain possesion high up on a couple of ocassions but you just feel they need to slow the game down and try to gain a little bit of control to silence the PSG crowd.
20:06
Fabian smashes over the bar
Dembele’s trickery down the right led to the first chance of the game. The French winger produced a brilliant cross which Lee was unable to connect with sweetly.
The ball fell to Fabian inside the area but the Spain couldn’t keep his shot down.

20:04
Fast start from the home side
Lascelles is forced into action twice in the opening 40 seconds of the game as PSG probe down their left flank. The defender was on hand to intercept a couple of dangerous crosses into the box.
Suspect that won’t be the last time he has to do that tonight.

PSG’s assistant youth director and former Toon icon Yohan Cabaye talks youth
‘We are lucky because Paris has a big pool of talent.’ He told TNT Sports. ‘When we recruit at 14/15, we are lucky to get the first choice. The most difficult part is to think about the future.
‘Sometimes the best talent at 14 is not the best talent at 18 and 19. We have a big squad of scouts and we are lucky. But we have to develop them in the right way and with the right mentality. It is a balance between recruiting and developing them after.’

PSG boss wary of underestimating Magpies AGAIN
‘If you saw the last match against Chelsea, physically it’s really incredible. Six players are putting on so much pressure, they can pressurise eight players at the same time.’ Luis Enrique said ahead of the game.
‘This intensity in their game and this pressure is something that we need to be prepared for.
‘The competition could be really short, it is a very complicated group and the ranking is really close, as you see.
‘It’s true that now every game is decisive, it’s knockout style. Two teams could be qualified already tomorrow night depending on the results, so until the last day, we don’t know.
‘I’m sure that my team is ready, though, ready to play, to be competitive on the pitch and that’s what we’ve been proving throughout the entire season.’
