Championship results: Newcastle stay on top, Huddersfield and Reading leave it late while Leeds return to winning ways

talkSPORT's round-up of all Tuesday's action in the second tier...

Jamaal Lascelles rescued Newcastle with an 81st-minute equaliser as Rafael Benitez's men maintained their one-point lead at the top of the Sky Bet Championship with a 2-2 draw at Norwich.

The Magpies had made a dream start at Carrow Road when Ayoze Perez fired the opener with just 24 seconds on the clock but Norwich hit back to level through Jacob Murphy.

Cameron Jerome capitalised on a blunder by Newcastle keeper Karl Darlow to give the Canaries the lead after 17 minutes but in an end-to-end thriller Lascelles volleyed home from a tight angle with time running out.
