Faces of PON: Newport County 2-1 Notts County, Saturday 6 May 2017


Joe Jones

Notts County played a part in one of the biggest Great Escapes of recent times when they fell to a 2-1 defeat at Newport County on Saturday.

With Hartlepool United 2-1 up against Doncaster Rovers and the Magpies drawing 1-1, the Exiles were set to drop out of the English Football League.

Mickey Demetriou and Jorge Grant exchanged goals either side of half-time as the match looked set to end a stalemate.

However, Mark O'Brien chested and volleyed home in the 89th minute to ensural Newport's survival in League Two, while Notts, with nothing to play for, finished 16th in the fourth tier.
