Michael Carrick oversaw his first defeat as Reds boss to suffer a blow in our bid for a UEFA Champions League place, despite the hosts playing the entire second half with 10 men.
After an opening period dominated by the hosts, the game sprung into real action as half-time approached. Bryan Mbeumo missed a glorious chance to open the scoring, before Jacob Ramsey was shown a second yellow card, and sent off, for attempting to win a penalty as Senne Lammens advanced from his goal.
The Magpies were awarded a spot-kick, soon afterwards, and Anthony Gordon converted from 12 yards.
