Newcastle forward Anthony Gordon is set to miss the next month of action after his crazy red card for pushing Brighton defender Paul van Hecke on Sunday.

The referee in charge opted to show Gordon a red after seeing he had pushed Van Hecke in the back of the head, which comes as a huge blow to Newcastle because he will now miss the Carabao Cup final against Liverpool on March 16.

Gordon has been superb for Newcastle this season, scoring nine times and assisting six goals to become a crucial part of Eddie Howe's dangerous attack.

But Howe will have to make do without Gordon for the foreseeable future, with a three-game ban incoming.

That will mean he will miss a set of important games for Newcastle as they continue their push for European football.

Gordon is set to be suspended for Newcastle's trip to West Ham next Monday night before that crucial cup final against Liverpool at Wembley Stadium the following Sunday.

Gordon will miss Newcastle's Carabao Cup final against Liverpool after shoving Paul van Hecke.

The final game Gordon will miss will be after the international break - a home clash against Brentford - meaning Howe won't have him back available until Newcastle's trip to Leicester City on April 7.
