West Ham and Liverpool will be missed by Newcastle United’s star player, who has been declared out for five weeks. An official return date has been established.

 

 


In the fifth round of the FA Cup, Gordon was issued a direct red card for striking Brighton defender Jan Paul van Hecke in the back of the head as the clock approached 90 minutes.

 

 

 

The score was 1-1. Anthony Taylor promptly displayed the red card, and the on-field decision was not reversed by a VAR assessment. Tariq Lampety was issued a second yellow card and subsequently dismissed from Brighton, and Fabian Schar’s potential 93rd-minute winner was disallowed due to offside. Subsequently, there was additional drama.

 

 

Danny Welbeck’s 114th-minute goal secured Brighton’s spot in the quarterfinals, and extra time ensued. Gordon will likely miss the Carabao Cup final due to his suspension, which further exacerbated Newcastle’s disappointment with the FA Cup exit. Gordon’s availability for the match is contingent upon the Magpies’ successful appeal of the red card.
