A 10-man Newcastle outfit rally to tie scores late before teen sensation Rio Ngumoha curls home a dramatic 100th-minute winner for the Reds.

With the prematch talk focused on Newcastle's Alexander Isak, it was Rio Ngumoha, Liverpool's 16-year-old sensation, who stole the spotlight at St James' Park.

Craig Burley reacts to Liverpool's dramatic 3-2 win over 10-man Newcastle in the Premier League.

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe said he has "no idea" which direction the Alexander Isak transfer saga is headed in after Yasir Al-Rumayyan flew into Tyneside.

Virgil van Dijk described Liverpool Rio Ngumoha's first Premier League appearance as a "dream debut" after the teenager's dramatic late winner at Newcastle.
