Newcastle United under-21s snatched a point against their Stoke City counterparts with a dramatic injury-time equaliser. The Magpies looked to be heading to their fourth defeat in their last five Premier League matches, only for Ben Parkinson to net his second goal in as man matches to earn a 2-2 draw at Clayton Wood after the hosts were reduced to 10 men.
Ben Dawson named four changes to the side on Friday night who came from behind twice to draw with Leeds United in their last competitive outing. Will Brown replaced Max Thompson in goal, with Michael Ndiweni, Remi Savage and Ciaran Thompson also coming into the team.
It only took nine minutes for the young Magpies to break the deadlock, with defender Charlie Wiggett netting his first goal of the season. Stoke were then forced into an early change due to injury, with Luke Redfern replacing George Lewis.
