Joelinton’s goal ensured Newcastle United hold a slender advantage from the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg victory at Southampton.
The Brazilian latched onto a low cross from substitute Alexander Isak in the 73rd minute of the goal.
Southampton tried to force a home draw but their attempts were thwarted by a resolute Newcastle with Nick Pope in goal. The Saints, who had a goal chalked off by VAR late on in the game, will be hoping for better fortune in the second leg.
