Crystal Palace resolved the issue of its continuation in the English Premier League after beating its guest Newcastle United 2-0 on Wednesday, after Jean-Philippe Mateta scored both goals for Palace.
The victory was deserved for Crystal Palace, while Newcastle’s chances of participating in Europe declined after it suffered its tenth defeat in its away matches.
Matita opened the scoring for Palace in the 54th minute after exchanging the ball with Jordan Ayew, and then added the second goal two minutes before the end of the match following a distinguished effort from Will Hughes and substitute Jeffrey Schlupp.
