The young goalkeepers afternoon went from bad to worse as he clipped Sinclair as he marauded into the box. Nonetheless, Clough's side turned the screw and Langley was then adjudged to have fouled Johnson inside the spot and the Stags striker dusted himself down before firing into the bottom left-hand corner. Mansfield didn't have it entirely all their own way with White going close to restoring some parity, rattling the crossbar with a free-kick from just over 20-yards out.

Nigel Clough's side were once again made to work for their equaliser but their patience eventually paid off when Johnson cut the ball back to O'Toole on the penalty spot who caressed the ball into the bottom corner beyond Langley. The Newcastle playmaker dropped his shoulder and drove towards the six-yard box before poking the ball through a crowd of bodies and into the bottom left-hand corner. The hosts enjoyed the majority of possession in the open stages of the game but Newcastle held resolute and Dickman's side took the lead against the run of play midway through the first-half.Ī moment of brilliance from White saw him nutmeg Keaton Ward and drive into the box from the right-hand flank. James Gale fired in a low cross from the left-hand side and Danny Johnson was alert to peel off a Newcastle defender and lash a volley beyond Langley into the roof of the net.
