Alexander Isak missed Newcastle’s Premier League loss against Liverpool last week but was named in the team against Brighton & Hove Albion in the FA Cup fifth round on Sunday.
Newcastle lost in extra time on what proved a costly afternoon at St James’ Park, where a red card for Anthony Gordon ruled him out of the Carabao Cup final. Isak, who scored the game’s first goal from the penalty spot, was substituted after receiving treatment.
