Alexander Isak continued his impressive run of form, opening the scoring, but Bryan Mbeumo, linked with a move to Newcastle himself, equalised from the penalty spot in the second-half.
Tonali’s decisive goal came late in the game, as a cross-come-shot from the right caught Brentford goalkeeper Mark Flekken off guard, finding the net and securing all three points for the Magpies.
Guimaraes, who started alongside Tonali in midfield, has been forming a strong partnership with the Italian since his return back in the squad.
The bond between the two continues to flourish, and their connection even extends to social media, where the Brazilian took the opportunity to send a message of appreciation to his teammate.
