Events

Match Events

0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at St James' Park!
5' Kieran Trippier has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 16 cards already picked up this season.
10' Newcastle United FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
14' Goal! Jacob Murphy scores his 31 goal in 342 matches.
19' The travelling Crystal Palace FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
24' A quiet spell here at St James' Park. Newcastle United FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
29' Crystal Palace FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
34' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Ismaila Sarr suffering a number of foals already.
38' Against the run of play, Marc Guehi has scored! This game has turned on its head.
43' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Crystal Palace FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
47' A goal from the England international Harvey Barnes! He fires home on 45 to make it 2-1!
51' It’s a booking for Crystal Palace FC player. Will Hughes gets a card.
53' The Switzerland Fabian Schar breaks the deadlock on 45 minutes. 3-1!
57' A change in the Crystal Palace FC ranks — Will Hughes exits the field as Adam Wharton enters on 57.
58' Against the run of play, Alexander Isak has scored! This game has turned on its head.
60' The referee has no hesitation. Dan Burn is booked for Newcastle United FC — card on 60.
62' The Newcastle United FC manager makes a substitution. Jacob Murphy departs to be replaced by Anthony Gordon.
67' Bruno Guimaraes was booked on 67.
72' Another substitution for Newcastle United FC to replace Bruno Guimaraes by Sean Longstaff on 72 minute.
76' Romain Esse gets the nod from Crystal Palace FC. He replaces Ismaila Sarr and will look to change the dynamic.
78' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Daniel Munoz on 78 minutes.
78' Another change for Newcastle United FC made on 78 minute. Kieran Trippier leaves to be changed by Emil Krafth.
83' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Newcastle United FC and Crystal Palace FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
85' Crystal Palace FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Justin Devenny is hanging Jefferson Lerma on the field on 85 minute.
90' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Eddie Howe will be considering his options from the bench.
It finishes all square. Newcastle United FC and Crystal Palace FC share the spoils 5-0.
