Willock wins Player of the Match vote from supporters as Newcastle United beat Birmingham City 3-2 in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Newcastle United advanced through to the next round of the FA Cup in a tightly fought contest away to Birmingham.

After falling behind early, it was Joe Willock who got the teams level, with his close range effort just about crossing the line to make it a 1-1 game, and also grabbed the winner in the 82nd minute to ensure victory.

Just minutes after Willock's first, Callum Wilson put Newcastle ahead, getting the decisive touch on a goalmouth scramble.

William Osula, who scored his first Newcastle goal in the third round of the FA Cup got an assist on each of the two first half goals.

Lewis Miley continues his impressive form with a solid game in midfield, and was heavily involved in a number of key battles on the pitch.
