The last touch of the game. Nketiah heads wide from Pino's corner towards the far post.

The whistle sounds and it's defeat this afternoon.

He barges over Wissa from behind.

... Schar deflects over with his head.

We're into six added minutes.

If Palace are to get anything from this, this needs to go in...

Pino takes, Hornicek punches, Osorio volleys over.

Not our day.

Dario Osorio has been a bright spark since coming on.

The Chilean exchanges passes with Pino and shoots first-time from the edge of the box - but it flies over.

He whips it in, but Schar is in the right place at the right time to clear.

Palace with most of the ball and most of the territory in the last spell of the game, but Newcastle are sitting deep and we're not testing Hornicek too often, in truth.

That's a stunning effort from Osorio from 30 yards, across goal - real knuckleball hit!

It's a fine save from Hornicek!

From the corner, Pino crosses towards Disasi, who heads behind.

Much better!

Khalaili with a storming run into the box, his pull-back turned behind by Burn.

Come on lads, time left here...

A set-piece delivery drifts through to the Brazil international who shoots from a tight angle.

Well over.

Better from Palace!

It's a lovely quick free-kick which sees Osorio lay off to Wharton, who swivels inside and bends towards the far post... lovely hit, great save from Hornicek.

The corner is attacked by both sets of players, but drifts behind.

... with a pair of players getting ready on the touchlines: Nketiah and Osorio are stripped and ready to come on.

I think this one will count.

It's been dominant from Newcastle at the start of the second-half.

The ball goes wide, Dedic's low cross comes in from the right, and from the penalty spot, Barnes lashes it into the far corner.

... and it deflects off Mitchell - VAR check it for handball, nothing given - before going behind for a corner.

Mateta deals with the delivery but Murphy wins another corner.

Good spell for Newcastle. Palace have to get through this.

It comes in and Benitez punches clear at his near post.

Willock appears to double Newcastle's lead.

Mateta's pass is cut out by Joelinton, who prods round the corner...

Willock is through, steadies himself, and finishes across Benítez.

But VAR, thankfully, rules it out for offside.

... as he races onto a ball in behind, but Hornicek gets there first to boot away.

It's a phenomenal cross, in fairness, from Jacob Murphy. Not sure how he dug that one out.

William Osula is running across his man, towards the near post, and touches home from close range.

COME ON YOU PALACE!

Not a lot to report on so far, in truth.

The Newcastle defender drags back Mateta and deservedly collects a booking.

One minute of additional time underway.

A succession of half-chances for Palace, from a series of Richards long throws.

The latest opportunity sees Pino swing in a cross from deep and Disasi, forward for one of them, attacks with his leg - but it bounces through to the 'keeper.

... from Yéremy Pino from a loose ball, after Mateta is on the end of a rough challenge, but Kamada's lofted pass doesn't make it to a teammate.

Not much of thriller so far - but Mitchell turns the ball across goal... and Dan Burn hacks it away.

... so far, this game. Richards does well to deal with some danger as Newcastle look to play the ball in behind.

Very few chances thus far, it must be said. A bit of a flat contest thus far.

The visitors have a set-piece and win the first header, but Benítez rises well to gather.

Still quite tense here - not much by way of clear chances.

Barnes skips inside for Newcastle and Khalaili makes a solid tackle on him to charge down the strike.

... to charge down an effort from distance from Harvey Barnes, and then charge towards the rebound and win a free-kick for his team.

Danger well and truly dealt with. Well in, Dwight.

McNeil goes close with a low effort across goal!

Mitchell and Pino combine well down the left to work the ball towards McNeil in a fraction of space.

He doesn't have much of the goal to aim at, but smashes it low... right the way across the face of goal. Nobody able to get a touch to it.

Palace have had the better chances in the opening 20 minutes.

Palace with plenty of early attacks.

On this occasion Mateta squares up his defender, cuts inside and - from the edge of the 'D' - drags a low effort towards the near post, wide of the mark.

Palace have made a strong start here – and McNeil bursts from deep before squaring for Kamada on the edge of the box.

He miscues his strike but it almost falls for Mateta, who swings a boot at it six yards out - doesn't make contact, however.

Palace with a good early opportunity!

Wharton clips a free-kick in, Disasi wins the first header, Canvot is involved as well... it almost falls for Mateta, but doesn't quite sit for him, and the danger is cleared by Newcastle.

Energetic start from both sides.

Newcastle get us underway.

COME ON YOU PALACEEEEE!

Crystal Palace are proudly supporting the Premier League’s No Room For Racism campaign at today's fixture.

At all 10 fixtures this weekend, clubs will come together to reinforce important messaging around our collective commitment to improving diversity and fighting discrimination.

No Room For Racism messaging is being displayed around Selhurst Park in a variety of forms, and we will come together to show our unity against all forms of discrimination.

Last season, Crystal Palace launched a season-long Black History in Football exhibition, in partnership with Surrey FA, the FA and Women in Sport Charity. The exhibition highlighted both pioneers and current Palace players, with a particular focus on South London and Surrey, celebrating their impact on the game and the wider community.

This season, the Club is collaborating with the Sickle Cell Society to raise awareness, support fundraising, and encourage people to donate blood.

Sickle cell is a condition that mainly affects Black communities, and as Selhurst Park is in Croydon, one of the most diverse parts of London, Palace is proud to support Sickle Cell Society and everyone affected.

Ohhhh, Daichi Ka-ma-da!

The Japan international is presented with a plaque to commemorate his Palace milestone, with applause around Selhurst Park for the popular playmaker.

Check out the best of his stats right here!
