Eddie Howe's Magpies beat Saudi Pro League leaders Al-Ittihad 2-1 in a training match on Friday as they rounded off their Saudi Arabia training camp.
Great goals from Allan Saint-Maximin and Ryan Fraser, either side of Abderazak Hamdallah's effort for the hosts, gave United the victory in the 70-minute fixture as Jamaal Lascelles made a speedy return from the injury which forced him off at Leeds six days earlier and Matty Longstaff played his first minutes since returning from his loan spell at Aberdeen.
An altercation between Ciaran Clark and Hamdallah saw both sides reduced to ten men in the second half - evidence that the two teams were determined to win despite their being no points at stake and the match at the 27,000-capacity Prince Abdullah Al Faisal Stadium in Jeddah taking place behind closed doors.
However, club photographer Serena Taylor was able to bring nufc.co.uk this gallery from the game.
