Newcastle United welcomed Fulham at St. James\u2019 Park earlier tonight as they hoped to secure a win at home in the EFL Cup. The Magpies made a quick start to the game and scored the opening goal in the tenth minute when Yoane Wissa found the back of the net. However, Sasa Lukic equalised for the Cottagers just six minutes later as the two teams went into the half-time break with a 1-1 scoreline.<\/p>\n
