Brighton win in pictures

Newcastle opened up a seven point gap between themselves and the bottom three with a hard-fought victory over Brighton & Hove Albion at St. James' Park on Saturday.

The in-form Ryan Fraser opened the scoring before his right-wing free kick was headed home by Fabian Schär two minutes later, and although Lewis Dunk pulled one back for the Seagulls in the second half, that proved enough for the Magpies to claim another three points.

It's now five wins from their last six games and eight unbeaten for Eddie Howe's men. Before the game, Joelinton was presented with the FUN88 Player of the Month award for February, while co-owner Amanda Staveley received some flowers from a supporter - and after the match, a now-familiar celebration photograph was taken in the dressing room by club photographer Serena Taylor, who brought nufc.co.uk this gallery.
