Hello and welcome to live coverage of Patrick Vieira's press conference following Crystal Palace's 1-1 draw with Newcastle United.The Eagles dominated the match during the first half with most of the possession but went into the break goalless after Christian Benteke had hit the post with a header.The Belgian struck the woodwork again shortly into the second period, before then burying a header at the back post to put Palace into the lead on the hour mark.Callum Wilson then responded with an overhead kick past Vicente Guaita from a corner, before Benteke missed a golden chance to put the home side ahead again from close range.The striker then thought he'd done just that as he headed past Karl Darlow late on, but VAR eventually stepped in and disallowed the goal following a foul from Marc Guehi.The draw is Palace's fourth in a row in the Premier League and their sixth from nine games so far this season.
