Overview
- Newcastle beat Crystal Palace 2-0 at Selhurst Park after Will Osula scored in the 47th minute and Harvey Barnes added a second in the 58th.
- Joe Willock had a second-half goal ruled out by VAR for offside, but goalkeeper Lukáš Horníček made key saves and kept Newcastle's first clean sheet since August.
- Jacob Murphy supplied the cross for Osula's opener and Amar Dedić provided the assist for Barnes's goal, both actions breaking the deadlock within 11 minutes after half-time.
- The result, reported on Sunday, intensified scrutiny of Palace manager Pierre Sage following a heavy defeat last weekend and a midweek Europa League trip to Beşiktaş.
- Osula's scoring run continued — seven goals in his last 13 Premier League games — and the win halted Newcastle's recent run of draws and moved them up the table, according to Sky Sports coverage.
