It was a game that saw the visitors run their Premier League opponents close throughout, Alan Shearer netting the winner ten minutes from time to deny Stags a lucrative replay back at Field Mill.
Allan Russell and Adam Rundle both forced good saves out of Magpies keeper Shay Given as Mansfield gave as good as they got but ultimately fell short.
Have a look at some photos from the game, which feature fans enjoying the encounter as well as as action shots from St James’ Park.
