Comments:

League position: 11th Newcastle United failed in their attempt to win consecutive home games in the Premier League for the first time since December 2019. The Magpies conceded four or more goals in a home game for the first time since Manchester United's 4-0 win in the Premier League on 5 April 2014. They had now lost four of their last five home games in the Premier League (won one).

Comments:

League position: 14th Manchester United avoided losing three of their opening four games of a league season for the first time since 1986. United had now been awarded 17 penalties in the Premier League since the start of the previous season; five more than any other team. Aaron Wan-Bissaka scored the first goal of his senior career in his 96th appearance (46 for Crystal Palace and 50 for the Red Devils). Bruno Fernandes scored after 18 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision. Manchester United were awarded a penalty after 56 minutes following a VAR review but Bruno Fernandes' attempt was saved. Aaron Wan-Bissaka scored United's third goal in the last minute of normal time at the end of the game before Marcus Rashford added their fourth in the sixth minute of added time.
