Anthony Gordon rescued a point for Newcastle United with a second-half penalty in their 1-1 draw against Manchester City at St James’ Park.

City took the lead in the first half through Josko Gvardiol, who scored after a well-placed pass from Jack Grealish.

The visitors controlled the early stages despite missing key midfielder Rodri, with Erling Haaland and Manuel Akanji both testing Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope.

Newcastle struggled to create clear chances in the first half, with Kieran Trippier’s shot blocked by Grealish.

However, City’s lead lasted until the 58th minute when Gordon was fouled by Ederson in the box.

The England international calmly converted the resulting penalty, leveling the score and shifting the momentum in Newcastle’s favor.

Although City pushed for a winner, with Haaland and substitute Phil Foden coming close, Nick Pope made crucial saves to deny Bernardo Silva and Haaland in the dying minutes.

Despite late pressure from the visitors, Newcastle held on for a well-earned point in front of their home crowd.

The draw means Man City, for the second time in a week, were unable to secure a win after taking the lead.
