Anthony Gordon gave Newcastle United the perfect start to their Champions League playoff first leg against Qarabag, scoring just one minute after kick-off. The England winger received a pass from Dan Burn and coolly slotted his finish past the keeper.

Harvey Barnes had the first chance of the evening, but his effort was fairly tame and straight at the Qarabag goalkeeper. The match continues at 5.45pm GMT.
