"Sandro Tonali scored twice as Newcastle United capitalised on Marco Bizot's red card to earn a comeback win at Aston Villa in an action-packed FA Cup fourth-round tie at Villa Park. In a game characterised by disputes over officiating decisions, Tammy Abraham collected Douglas Luiz's pass to give Villa a 14th-minute lead with a goal Newcastle believed should have been ruled offside."
"There was less debate when Villa goalkeeper Bizot charged towards the halfway line and scythed down Murphy during first-half added time, prefacing Tonali drawing Newcastle level with a deflected shot from outside the box in the 63rd minute. Having scored his first goal since May, Tonali made light of Bruno Guimaraes' absence through injury by striking again from distance in the 76th minute before Nick Woltemade sealed the Magpies' progress with two minutes remaining."
Newcastle overturned a 1-0 deficit to win at Villa Park after Marco Bizot was sent off for a foul on Jacob Murphy. Tammy Abraham scored in the 14th minute from Douglas Luiz's pass with a goal Newcastle believed should have been offside, and Video Assistant Referee technology was not in use in the fourth round. Lucas Digne avoided what many saw as a penalty and a red card for handling and a reckless tackle. Sandro Tonali equalised with a deflected long-range strike in the 63rd minute, added a second from distance in the 76th, and Nick Woltemade sealed the victory.
