Brest's attack was unsuccessful. The ball went long into the home area and no one from the second line could get to the goal.
Trippier's shot went wide - he surprised everyone with that shot!
Willock was left sore on the ground, but it looks like he will not go on to mators.
Second half begins
The complement of the game has begun.
Don't miss Harvey Barnes' goal!
End of the first part
Brest have come close to Newcastle's area with a couple of approaches. Dúbravka handled the action well.
Pereira Lage's half-clear shot inside the area. He was in space, but hit it with the inside of his boot and sent it wide.
Dúbravka! Brest pressed high at the start, recovered the ball and tried to surprise the Magpies' goalkeeper with a long-range shot.
Brest are now driving the ball in Newcastle's half in search of an equalizer.
GOAL...! CANCELLED
Great through ball from Barnes to Osula, but he was caught offside. He was already in front of the keeper.
Bruno Guimarães' shot goes just over the bar. Good set piece.
GOAL FOR NEWCASTLE!
Harvey Barnes did it! Great play down the left side, he got past Lala, hooked inside and put the ball inside the far post!
Almirón's precise cross for Barnes, but he headed a little wide. It was complicated because of the angle.
Close!
Great play by Miguel Almirón who drove the ball from the midfield, opened up space on the edge of the box, took the shot and just wide!
Newcastle took the initiative in the first few minutes, with Stade Brest not pressing as hard and preferring to wait.
