Crystal Palace Stages Comeback to Defeat Newcastle, Mateta Scores Twice

Newcastle took the lead through Will Osula's first-half goal, but Mateta's introduction turned the game around. He headed in the equalizer and then scored a penalty in injury time to complete the comeback. The win moves Palace above Newcastle in the table, while the Magpies' struggles to hold onto leads continue to plague their season. Newcastle boss Eddie Howe expressed his disappointment, stating that his team's inability to consolidate their advantage has been a recurring issue. Palace manager Oliver Glasner praised his team's psychological strength and the impact of his substitutes, particularly Mateta, who has now found his top fitness level.
