Dummett booked after Bunn saves Townsend’s free kick. It won’t matter…
Another Newcastle corner. Townsend whips it in and again Villa stand firm. Time almost up now. Desperate times for Newcastle fans…
Newcastle force a corner. In it comes and Villa clear with a hint of holding in the box on Mitrovic.
A big block from Clark as Mitrovic lays it off to Wijnaldum and he gets a brave head in the way.
All hands to the pump now for Villa. Their goal under siege.
Into the first of six added minutes here. Still Newcastle fans believe.
Newcastle sub: Colback off to be replaced by de Jong. Villa sub: Hepburn-Murphy on for Sinclair.
Rafa Benitez about to make his final chance as Sissoko runs out of pitch…
Alan Hutton, hardly Marco van Basten… What was he thinking? Newcastle now really do need a goal…
Ayew fouled by Perez and Villa have a free kick in a very dangerous area now… It’s played in, headed on and Hutton blasts over from a tight angle.
Should things stay this way, Sunderland can relegate Newcastle before they play their final game. Ouch!!
Sunderland are 3-2 up on Chelsea, so will go a point clear of their rivals. Squeaky bum time now…
Newcastle win a corner. In it comes from Perez, well cleared by Lescott.
TEN MINUTES REMAINING: Not too much more that Benitez can do. He’s made the attacking changes.
Sanchez hobbles off but he may be back after treatment. Doesn’t look too bad and indeed he’s back on.
Another brief stoppage as Sanchez goes over on his ankle after a challenge from Sissoko.
