Good afternoon and a happy new year! Welcome to our live text commentary of West Brom's clash with Newcastle United at the Hawthorns in the Premier League.

FULL-TIME - West Brom have grabbed a dramatic three points with a late penalty which Berahino coolly converted, and Newcastle are absolutely gutted after having battled with 10 men to try to have a share of the points. Debuchy's red card certainly didn't help, but West Brom have an important 1-0 win. Thanks for joining us.

Cabaye tries his luck from range with a fizzing volley, and he at least forces Foster to make a save.

Four minutes will be added at the end of the second half as Pardew implores his players to push up and attack in the dying moments.

GOAL! Saido Berahino slots away the penalty kick as West Brom look to grab all three points against 10-man Newcastle! He's very cool indeed as he tucks the ball under Krul, and the hosts could well have pounced at the death to win this tight match.

PENALTY TO WEST BROM! Brunt goes down inside the box as he takes the ball past Krul and is brought down!

What a miss! Ridgewell totally miscues a seemingly simple close-range finish from Amalfitano's delivery and that should have been the winner!

Ridgewell continues to give West Brom good width out on the left, but there has been no end product from the hosts today. Newcastle are sitting very deep.

Another change for West Brom is now made as Sessegnon heads off. He's replaced by Vydra.

The third and final change for Newcastle is made with Ameobi going off. He's replaced by Haidara.

Tiote now goes down injured in the West Brom half and Pardew suddenly looks very anxious on the touchline.

Pardew makes a double change after the red card as Cabaye takes the armband and Yanga-Mbiwa replaces Coloccini with Haidana also on for the visitors.

RED CARD! Debuchy is sent off for a very nasty challenge and it's two footed and high as the referee is left with no doubt at all as he shows the red card! Pardew is furious on the touchline.

Remy races through on goal and collides with Ridgewell inside the West Brom box. He tentatively appeals for a penalty, but it's never going to be one.

Anelka and Sessegnon combine once more in the final third as the pair look to make something happen for the hosts.

West Bromwich Albion have drawn their last three games in a row; no team has recorded four in a row in the Premier League in 2013-14.

Ben Arfa is already looking bright for the visitors as he takes the ball down the right and cuts it back for Cabaye, who miscontrols.

Newcastle make a change for the second half as Hatem Ben Arfa replaces Gouffran, while West Brom replace Jones, who sustained a head injury, with Berahino.

HALF TIME - It's been a disappointing first half at the Hawthorns with neither side able to make their mark on proceedings. Anelka has been bright for the hosts but has not been provided with any real service.

Just one minute will be added at the end of this uneventful first half as West Brom build patiently from the back once more.

Sissoko shows his power in midfield as he dispossesses Brunt and brings the ball forward into space. He's had a quiet start to the match but is growing into it now.
