Newcastle United Player Ratings with 10/10 Midfield Masterclass in Absence of Bruno Guimaraes

Newcastle United overturned an early deficit and capitalized on Aston Villa's goalkeeper red card to win 3-1 with Sandro Tonali scoring twice, advancing to the FA Cup fifth round.

  • In a fourth-round FA Cup tie at Villa Park, Newcastle United beat 10-man Aston Villa 3-1 to reach the fifth round.
  • Villa initially took the lead when Tammy Abraham converted from Douglas Luiz's free-kick while appearing offside, and Newcastle were denied a penalty with Lucas Digne avoiding a red card.
  • After Bizot's red card, Tonali scored twice, including a long-range strike, to turn the tie in Newcastle's favor, as confirmed by data and match reports.
  • Nick Woltemade wrapped up the win after a misplaced Lamare Bogarde pass, drawing acclaim from 6,000 Toon fans and giving Eddie Howe's side strong momentum.
  • Officials' errors loomed large as Kavanagh and his team appeared to make at least three major decisions incorrectly, with expected goals shifting from Villa's 0.72–0.29 at half-time to Newcastle's 1.31–0.77, and VAR not in use until the fifth round.
