MAN OF THE MATCH?

PL2 summary

Thomas Allan secured a thrilling 3-2 home win for Newcastle United in Premier League 2 Division 2 after Norwich City had battled back from two goals down.

Rosarie Longelo superbly curled Newcastle into the lead in the 35th minute at Whitley Park, and six minutes later Luke Charman doubled the Magpies' advantage.

But Norwich halved the deficit in first-half stoppage time, with Daniel Adshead making a powerful run from his own half and finishing well.

And it was 2-2 in the 64th minute as Norwich captain Isak Thorvaldsson fired into the roof of the net.

It was Newcastle who came out on top, though, as Allan controlled a Jamie Sterry pass and beat goalkeeper Archie Mair.

The Magpies' second successive victory takes them up to seventh place on six points.

Norwich lie a place and point below after a three-match winless run.
