Substitutes Jack Payne and Kasey Palmer combined to bring Huddersfield Town a first win at Newcastle United since the 1953/54 season.

It's two Championship victories out of two for David Wagner's side after Payne controlled Palmer's pass and shot home to stun the home support in a 52,079 crowd at St James' Park.

Town led though Nahki Wells, who notched in first-half stoppage time, but Newcastle levelled on the hour through Dwight Gayle.

Town keeper Danny Ward blocked the striker's penalty, awarded for a handball by slipper Mark Hudson, but he followed up to nod home the rebound.
