Harvey Barnes’ second-half brace helped Newcastle United clinch a 3-2 Carabao Cup win over West Brom.
Isaac Price sent the Baggies in front with a brilliant free kick, but Newcastle responded through debutant Bazoumana Touré and substitute Barnes either side of the break.
The tie took a twist when Price levelled from the penalty spot in the 77th minute, but Barnes struck four minutes later against his former club to seal the Magpies’ place in the third round.
Newcastle announced the signing of Nico González as Matthias Jaissle continues to bolster his squad before the transfer window closes and the midfielder was then presented to St James’ Park before kick-off.
The Magpies boss made six changes from Sunday’s draw with Liverpool, which included bows for Ewen Jaouen and Toure, while West Brom also made six changes from their victory over Burnley.
