The Blues were hoping to bounce back after Saturday’s 2-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur. But a trip to the north east was always going to be a tough task.
And so it proved to be with the Blues failing to register a shot on target during the 90 minutes. Newcastle scored in their main period of dominance in the first half through Miguel Almiron.

Everton will return to Premier League action when they welcome Crystal Palace to Goodison Park on Saturday. The Blues currently find themselves 15th in the table.
Speaking to Amazon Prime post-match, Newcastle defender Kieran Trippier said: "It was a massive win for us. We've had a good spell recently and we want to keep pushing up the league and competing at the top of the table. We didn't perform to our best today but we grinded out the result.
"Ever since the gaffer has come here, and myself, it has been a positive place to be. We are performing well. The last two games not really, but we are still getting the results we want. Long may that continue."
