A 1-1 draw with Brighton in our final home game of the season all but confirms the highest we can finish in the league is sixth.
Spurs winning against Burnley means the gap opens to six points with just two games remaining – while Chelsea can move level on points if they win at Nottingham Forest.
A VAR-check denied Anthony Gordon from securing the three points late on as the lineman’s flag had been raised for offside.
Despite trailing through Joel Veltman’s opener, we struck back through a geordie-to-geordie set up to level proceedings.
Elliot Anderson set up Sean Longstaff who made no mistake as he banged home into the middle of the net late in first half injury time.
A frustrating result that allows the likes of Chelsea and Man Utd back into it ahead of the final two games of the season, but our fate is in our own hands ahead of trips to Old Trafford and Brentford.
