Newcastle United escape League Cup shock, Luis Sinisterra stars for Leeds United

London: Big-spending Newcastle survived a shock when they had to come from a goal down to defeat fourth-tier Tranmere 2-1 in the League Cup second round on Wednesday.

Elliott Nevitt gave Tranmere the lead before Jamaal Lascelles levelled before half-time.

Chris Wood headed in the Newcastle winner in the 52nd minute to set-up a home third round clash against Premier League rivals Crystal Palace.

Leeds put out third division Barnsley 3-1 with Colombian international Luis Sinisterra scoring his first goal for the Premier League side since his £22.5 million move from Feyenoord.

He then won the penalty for Mateusz Klich to convert before Barnsley pulled a goal back from a Mads Andersen diving header.

Callum Styles missed a penalty for Barnsley while Klich put the result beyond doubt.

Premier League Brighton eased to a 3-0 win at third-tier Forest Green while Bristol City claimed a 3-1 win at Wycombe.
