Fulham host Newcastle at Craven Cottage with the visitors looking to close the gap to the top four of the Premier League.

On replays it is a close call - the push seems to be just outside and continues inside. If I was a television ref of the future, it'd be a free-kick. Newcastle not happy.

EQUALISER FOR FULHAM! Murphy finishes the spot-kick to the right, sending Krul the wrong way. 1-1.

PENALTY TO FULHAM! Duff chases a long ball into the box and is shoved over by Santon - but it looked just outside the box!

Stop-start, with a few breaks in play. /// The uncertainty got to the players, perhaps - to be honest, they were punching above their weight for a while there. Any Fulham fans have an opinion on this?

Better defensive pressure from Jol's side at the start of this half. /// CurrieGeorge via Twitter: "since just surviving in 07/08, Fulham have finished 7th, 12th with UEFA final and 8th. what's happened to them this year?"

Duff explodes into life on the right - he has changed sides - to whistle a left-footed shot a couple of yards over the far top corner.

Off we go in the second half - Newcastle now kicking from left to right.

Fulham change at half-time: Chris Baird for Ruiz.

Drop me a line during the break with your thoughts on the match. Will Newcastle score more goals, or Jol sort it out at the break and force a Fulham response?

Newcastle defend the free-kick, which was 40 yards out, and the whistle sounds. 1-0 to the Magpies at half-time.

Johnson looks to break through for Fulham on the right but is tugged back by Santon - and when he gets free, the away left-back tussles with him again, forcing the striker to the floor! Covering defenders mean he just gets away with a yellow card as Johnson fumes.

Probably the midfielder you least expected to provide the goal - that shows the quality in this Toon side.

That is midfielder Guthrie's first Premier League goal since December 2008.

GOAL FOR NEWCASTLE! Ben Arfa gives the ball to Danny Guthrie and he surges forward, striking an unstoppable shot into the top corner from the edge of the box! 1-0.

But it is Ameobi who almost scores for Newcastle here, flying in from the left to shoot low and hard and force Stockdale to push around the post. Newcastle have a fourth corner of the game, to Fulham none.

The scoreline is still goalless so anything can happen. The Magpies missing the cutting edge of Ba, in my opinion, but Best showed what he can do with that finish the other day against QPR.

Best with a hack on Riise as he brings the ball out of defence for Fulham. /// Hello Freddy from Nigeria - hope you're enjoying the game.

The striker is involved immediately, chasing down the ball into the left-hand corner. Someone with a bit of pace up front could take the pressure off Fulham, but he isn't really a hold-the-ball-up forward.

Fulham change: Sidwell is hurt and replaced by Andy Johnson. A tactical change for the hosts.

The wind is not making things easy for either side, but especially Fulham. This is quite an open ground.

There has been no draw in the last 14 top-flight meetings at Fulham between these sides, stretching back 60 years - since a 1-1 result in February 1952.
