Chelsea came back from a two-goal deficit to draw 2-2 against Newcastle at St James' Park.
Nick Woltemade redeemed himself after netting an own goal in the Wear-Tyne derby last weekend, scoring a first-half brace to establish a healthy lead.
But with two brilliant goals, Chelsea pulled themself back into the tie, securing a much-needed point as it looks to remain in the Premier League title race.
Reece James’ free-kick and Joao Pedro's goal earned Enzo Maresca’s side a point.
The much-anticipated fixture was a great advert for the division, with play swinging from end to end and maddening moments going hand in hand with flashes of brilliance.
Alejandro Garnacho might consider himself lucky with a first-half challenge that could have seen the Argentine see red.
Newcastle might also feel hard done by as cries for a penalty echoed around St James Park when Anthony Gordon was taken down in the area by a forceful challenge from Trevoh Chalobah.
Home fans booed the officials on the whistle after a number of decisions appeared to go against the Magpies.

4' Nick Woltemade
Woltemade took the lead early with a six-yard tap-in after Robert Sanchez made a remarkable first save.
After a weekend to forget when he scored an own goal in the Wear-Tyne derby, the German had St James’ Park on their feet.
Anthony Gordon capitalised on a risky Wesley Fofana’s dribble into midfield which led to a dangerous low cross behind the defence.
Murphy's ball fell to Gordon at the back post but Sanzhez denied the Englishman from close range.
It was right time, right place, for Woltemade, who tapped it into the open net.
