Match Highlights: Notts County vs. Newport County

Notts County dismayed and delighted in equal measure on Saturday by beating Newport County 4-3 in their League Two clash at Meadow Lane.

The Exiles struck twice in the opening 10 minutes through  Mark Byrne and Alex Rodman, but the Magpies were level by the break through Liam Noble and Izale McLeod.

The former Crawley man powered a diving header into the opposition net in midway through the first half to put Notts ahead, but Newport levelled with just six minutes to play through Scott Boden.

Just when it seemed like it would be honours even at the Lane, Noble popped up six minutes into injury time following sustained pressure in the box from Notts to give his side a thrilling win.

Pride of Nottingham is eager for fans to relive the game in comforting hindsight and knowledge that it resulted in a victory for the Magpies, so we have provided a link to the match highlights.

    Cut the errors out, play like we did after the 23rd minute and we will be fine. Some of the player need to establish consistency now mind!

    Hilarious slapstick defending from both sides. Our first was comedy gold! Glad there was a happy ending this time, but we won't be so lucky every week.

    I love the last goal....it seemed to take an age for us to "bag" it..........how the heck did he get a yellow card for the celebration?......if that was me, I would still be doing a lap of honour on Sunday morning?
