LONDON : Crystal Palace made absolutely sure of Premier League safety with an impressive 2-0 home defeat of Newcastle United on Wednesday with both goals scored by Jean-Philippe Mateta.
It was a well-deserved win for the hosts while Newcastle’s European hopes were dealt a blow with a 10th away defeat.
Mateta put Palace ahead with a well-worked goal in the 54th minute after a one-two with Jordan Ayew.
He sealed the points late on after good work from Will Hughes and substitute Jeffrey Schlupp.
Palace are 14th with 39 points from 34 games, 14 points above 18th-placed Luton Town who also have four games left.
