Wissa takes the ball off of Van Hecke's weak clearing attempt, and drives at Verbruggen before cutting back to Harvey Barnes.
Barnes takes a touch to create his angle and blasts the ball into the upper reaches of the goal.
Guimaraes is done and Jacob Ramsey is into the fray.
Lewis Hall leads a rush down the left, gives Wissa time to get to the penalty spot, and lays an invitation on a plate.
Wissa rockets it over Verbruggen's goal.
Borderline is doing a lot of work because it should be 2-2.
A low pass through the six somehow misses all of the Magpies backs and the ex-Newcastle prospect snaps the ball way over the bar from an open back post.
Brighton want a penalty shout for Malick Thiaw's block of a shot but Charalampos Kostoulas isn't screaming as he adapts to rip an overhead shot toward the low far post.
Pope gets to his left to make a very good save moments after nearly giving away a goal. Up and down day!
Charalampos Kostoulas, Maxim De Cuyper, and Matt O'Riley will get about 10 minutes and stoppage to find an equalizer or more, replacing Welbeck, Baleba, and Veltman.
The front three of Jacob Murphy, Joe Willock, and Will Osula exit for Lewis Hall, Harvey Barnes, and Yoane Wissa in the 68th minute.
Really good team goal for the Seagulls who worked quick passes in the center of Newcastle's third, leading to Welbeck putting Hinshelwood in great position to blast home and pull Brighton within one.
Really good from the Magpies in an open, entertaining game.
Bruno Guimaraes' return remains their biggest asset, as his partnership with Sandro Tonali and Joelinton in the midfield was the key to their ascension.
The boys are showing out for their owners and their coach.
Burn heads Bruno Guimaraes' brilliant corner kick across goal and past Verbruggen.
The right back limps off with a leg injury, and veteran Joel Veltman takes his place in the 18th minute.
Bruno Guimaraes sends an ambitious ball into the final third under pressure, and Jacob Murphy is taken down by a sliding Bart Verbruggen.
But Murphy doesn't stay down, tracking down the loose ball at the end line and snapping a quick cross to the heart of the box for Osula to head home.
A corner is deflected into the air and then settled for Carlos Baleba well outside the 18.
Baleba goes for it and his rocket skims the cross bar.
Brighton nearly strike in the second minute but Nick Pope is quick to react and stop a terrific chance.

Fabian Hurzeler's Seagulls are unbeaten in five matches and 6-1-1 since February 21, surging to the top of the crowded back seeking sixth-place on the table. Their 50 points, however, are just one clear of Bournemouth and two ahead of a trio of teams as the race for a Europa League spot is hot and heavy.
WATCH — Newcastle v Brighton
Eddie Howe's Newcastle United have walked themselves right out of the European picture with a miserable 2026, now losers of four-straight Premier League games as part of a 3W-9L league run.
Howe is under considerable stress as the club's ownership has flown into the Northeast for the annual review to find a boss keeping his most expensive summer purchases on the bench and last season's Champions League qualifiers still technically not safe from relegation. SJP should be some sort of place on Saturday.
OUT: Valentino Livramento (groin), Fabian Schar (ankle), Emil Krafth (thigh) | QUESTIONABLE: Anthony Gordon (groin)
OUT: Diego Gomez (knee), James Milner (unspecified), Adam Webster (knee), Stefanos Tzimas (unspecified) | QUESTIONABLE: Solly March (muscular)
The Magpies have been so good at home over the past few seasons and Howe has access to his preferred midfield of Sandro Tonali, Joelinton, and Bruno Guimaraes. However, Brighton's had the Magpies' number with four wins and two draws in their last six meetings including a 2-1 win at the Amex in October. Newcastle 1-1 Brighton*.*
