Substitute Jean-Philippe Mateta scored a decisive double to propel Crystal Palace to a thrilling 2-1 comeback victory over Newcastle, keeping the pressure on Eddie Howe. The visitors took the lead through Will Osula's first-half goal, but Mateta's introduction turned the tide. He equalized with a header and then sealed the win with a penalty in injury time.
The defeat adds to Newcastle's woes, with their inconsistent form threatening their European ambitions. Palace, meanwhile, leapfrogged Newcastle into 13th place on goal difference, with the Magpies now five points adrift of seventh-placed Brentford.
