Mateta's Late Double Secures Stunning Palace Comeback Against Newcastle

Crystal Palace staged a dramatic comeback to defeat Newcastle 2-1, with Jean-Philippe Mateta netting a late double to turn the game on its head.

The French striker headed in the equalizer before converting a penalty in injury time to seal the win for Palace. The result leaves Newcastle's European ambitions hanging by a thread, while Palace leapfrog their opponents into 13th place in the Premier League table.
