Newcastle still winless after draw at Palace
Newcastle earned only their second point of the season as they held Crystal Palace at a rain-drenched Selhurst Park.
After a bright first half, conditions became increasingly soggy underfoot which resulted in misplaced balls and barely three passes strung together after the break.
Palace came closest to scoring through Luka Milivojevic, whose first-half free-kick came off the post, and Mamadou Sakho, who somehow failed to find the target from a header at the far post with the goal open.
Newcastle, who hung on in the closing minutes, created very little. Spanish attacker Ayoze Perez had their best chance when he fired a shot at keeper Wayne Hennessey following a defensive mistake by James Tomkins in the opening half.
