Erling Haaland touched off a last part fightback from Manchester City

Kieran Trippier dispatched a grand free-kick to give Newcastle a merited 3-1 lead right off the bat in the final part against the bosses

who drove in the fifth moment through Ilkay Gundogan.

Newcastle took charge soon after

with the powerful Allan Saint-Maximin making objectives for Miguel Almiron and Callum Wilson.

John Stones then sent the winger tumbling just outside the box and Trippier did the rest

although Haaland pounced on Rodri's 60th-minute knockdown and Bernardo Silva dispatched Kevin De Bruyne's pass to restore parity.
