Staveley demand and Howe's Saudi question - moments you may have missed in Newcastle's Chelsea defeat

Newcastle United's unbeaten Premier League run came to an end in controversial fashion as a late Kai Havertz strike earned Chelsea a narrow victory. Illnesses for Jonjo Shelvey and Joe Willock forced Eddie Howe into a late reshuffle, with the Magpies head coach making four changes and reverting to a back five.

Newcastle pressed well and were left frustrated by two decisions from referee David Coote, with Havertz only shown a yellow card for an elbow on Dan Burn before Trevoh Chalobah was not punished for bringing Jacob Murphy down in the box.

The visitors tired in the latter stages of the contest, and were punished in the 89th minute as the German international expertly converted Jorginho's pass to snatch a 1-0 win for Thomas Tuchel's side.Here are the moments you might have missed from the Magpies' defeat at Stamford Bridge.
