24'
An appalling shot by Joelinton who really has nothing between him and the goal. It rolls past the post.
22'
20'
It was only a matter of time, to be fair to them. Rochdale have been putting in a defensive shift today, but Newcastle are relentless and it was never going to be enough. They'll need to find something a bit more creative now if they're to stop the rot.
18'
GOAL! Almiron shoots from the far edge of the box from an Atsu ball in. It's a lovely finish.
16'
Some colourful chanting about Robbie Savage going on right now...
16'
Free kick by Longstaff just outside the box, it's cleared by Rochdale but not very far.
14'
O'Connell makes himself known again as he intervenes in an attempt by Matty Longstaff.
12'
O'Connell again gets between Yedlin and Joelinton, the former playing the ball into the box to the latter. He's putting in a decent shift today.
11'
Joelinton takes a shot but O'Connell gets in front of him to deflect the ball, which sails over the bar.
9'
A decent play by Rochdale who have had a moment of attacking there. Henderson finds himself in front of the goal and has a pop, but it's no good.
7'
Another good catch by Sanchez as Krafth shoots.
6'
Keeper Sanchez makes a confident claim on the ball as it sails in courtesy of a corner taken by Longstaff.
4'
Yedlin plays the ball in, it meets with O'Connell in th box for Rochdale.
3'
Sean Longstaff takes it but wait, Rochdale get their first run of the match.
2'
Almiron wins the first corner of the match.
2'
Newcastle start as I rather suspect they mean to continue, pressing forward with the ball, Rochdale really without a look in.
1'
That's the whistle, we're off!

Kick off today is one minute later than normal, to encourage fans to take a minute to think about their mental health - this is part of the Heads Up campaign, backed by the FA and Prince William, Duke of Cambridge.
