Tammy Abraham has put Aston Villa ahead against Newcastle United in the FA Cup fourth round.
It's his first goal for the club since returning.
Replays show the striker was offside, but there is no VAR in the competition until the fifth round.

Moves like this seem important. Following @rajakorman.bsky.social’s piece on Alphaville yesterday, issuers of the dominant reserve currency don’t need to run c/a deficits - but the do need to be willing to provide insurance services to the rest of the world.
The Governing Council has decided to enhance the Eurosystem repo facility for central banks (EUREP) to make it more flexible and effective in supporting the smooth transmission of euro area monetary policy.

It's important to note this is not a central bank swapline
EUREP is rather a repo facility which "provides backstop euro liquidity to non-euro area central banks against high-quality euro-denominated collateral"
