Newcastle took the lead against Fulham in the 39th minute thanks to a great strike from Sean Longstaff.
The goal came from a short corner, with the ball passed to Trippier, who delivered a deep cross inside the box.
Burn successfully kept the ball in play with a header into the center, but Fulham players struggled to clear it.
Eventually, the ball took a deflection off Bruno Guimaraes’ arm, setting up nicely for Longstaff, who emphatically finished it.
There was a VAR review for handball and while the ball certainly hit the Newcastle midfielder’s hands, it was deemed unintentional and the goal was given.
