🔴 PL LIVE: Man City behind at Palace early on, Newcastle equalise

Must read

Despite the postponed Merseyside derby, four Premier League games take place on Saturday.

Follow the action here.


Crystal Palace vs Manchester City

Scorers: Muñoz 4′

Crystal Palace took the lead inside just four minutes through Daniel Muñoz, as Manchester City’s revival looked to be short-lived.

Will Hughes was the architect, playing a wonderful ball through for the Colombian to run onto, and finish past Stefan Ortega.

City continued to look shaky at the back, but almost found a way back into the game in the 24th minute, İlkay Gündoğan hitting the post with a low left-footed effort from just outside the box.

Brentford vs Newcastle

Scorers: Mbeumo 8′; Isak 11′

Brentford, who have the best home record in the league so far this season, took the lead after just eight minutes.

Christian Norgaard played a lovely ball to Bryan Mbuemo, and he did brilliantly to fashion an opening and curl it past Nick Pope.

Their lead barely lasted as Newcastle responded through their main man, Alexander Isak, who followed up his screamer against Liverpool with a real poacher’s finish. He connected with Jacob Murphy’s cross-cum-shot, heading it in from close range.
