Dwight Gayle has revealed that his reward for a first Newcastle United hat-trick was a whip-lash injury inflicted by over-exuberant team-mate Aleksandar Mitrovic.
The £10million striker completed his treble in the 96th minute of Wednesday's 4-3 win over Norwich City.
Gayle's goal - on the back of an equaliser from Yoan Gouffran 60 seconds earlier - sparked wild celebrations inside St James' Park and one clip of the match-winner being hauled to the ground by Mitrovic has gone viral on the Internet, as has a picture of the Serbian hoisting manager Rafa Benitez off his feet and into the air.
