Brentford overturned a halftime deficit to defeat Newcastle United 3-1 at the Gtech Community Stadium, with Igor Thiago netting twice in the closing stages to condemn the visitors to another away league defeat. Harvey Barnes had given Newcastle the lead before the interval by firing through goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher's legs, but Kevin Schade equalized after halftime with a header following Sven Botman's inadvertent flick from Michael Kayode's throw-in.

Dan Burn's challenge on Dango Ouattara inside the penalty area resulted in a spot kick and a red card after the defender received his second yellow. Substitute goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale, making his first league appearance for Newcastle after Nick Pope departed injured, was beaten by Thiago's composed penalty. The Brazilian striker added a second goal when Malick Thiaw mishandled a through ball, leaving Ramsdale helpless once more.

Newcastle dropped to 14th place and has not secured an away victory since April.
