They are under a lot of pressure Palace now. They have to find something. These Palace supporters will be frustrated and now that Newcastle have got their breakthrough they won't be in a rush to go anywhere.

Craig Dawson comes on for Rodrigo Gomes but immediately goes in the book for breaking up a Bournemouth counter.

Woops, Mark Flekken living life on the edge as he plays out from the back under pressure from Jamie Vardy and Facundo Buonanotte.
Cool as you like from the keeper, though.

It's a brilliant set-piece. The timing and the weight of the ball was so good and it is fizzed right across the face of the goal. It is so good - really well done from Newcastle.

Leicester have been atrocious defensively all season, utterly inept. Appointing Ruud van Nistelrooy is an unbelievable naive decision from a leadership team at Leicester that just keeps making embarrassing mistakes time and time again.

Nott'm Forest 1-0 Ipswich
There was a penalty shout in there somewhere with Chris Wood down in the box but the video assistant referee has a look and it's clearly just a slip from the striker.
Nott'm Forest 1-0 Ipswich
Goodness me what an incredible save!
Nottingham Forest have a corner and it's looped over to the back post then hooked back in by Jota Silva.
Murillo heads goalwards and it's an absolutely superb save from the fingertips of Arijanet Muric.
Marc Guehi - own goal (53 mins)
Finally, a little bit of quality!
Newcastle win a wide free-kick and try something off the training ground.
A triangle of passes sends Anthony Gordon clear on the right, and his low cross is turned into his own net by Palace defender Marc Guehi.

Earlier, Justin Kluivert netted two penalties within 18 minutes. Before today, the fastest a player had scored multiple penalty goals in a Premier League match was in the first 25 minutes, by Robbie Fowler in February, 2007 and by Mark Noble in April, 2011.

Kevin Schade is full of confidence and hankering for his hat trick.
He advances down the left-hand side but the ball is eventually cut out.

What can we expect from the second 45 then?
Tino Livramento messes up clearing a cross but his keeper Nick Pope comes to the rescue, catching the ball before Jean-Philippe Mateta can get there.

Chris Wise
Final Score reporter at Gtech Community Stadium
Ruud van Nistelrooy will be under no illusions now about the task ahead of him with this Leicester squad.
They’ve been torn apart by an excellent, sharp Brentford.
Kevin Schade has had his best half of football of his entire time at the club. Two goals and an assist. But those around him deserve great credit too.
That’s an incredible 17 first half goals from Brentford this season.
Chris Wood (49 mins, pen)
Emphatic penalty from Chris Wood, slammed into the roof of the net.
That makes him Nottingham Forest's joint-top goal scorer in the Premier League.
What a season he's having.

Leif Davis waves his finger as if to say "no pen" but the referee gives it and the VAR agrees.
Justin Kluivert scored two of his three penalties inside the opening 18 minutes for Bournemouth at Molineux
Bournemouth's Justin Kluivert became the first player in 67 years to score a hat-trick of penalties in an English top-flight game as his treble saw off Wolves and piled the pressure on home boss Gary O'Neil.
In a remarkable and thrilling match at Molineux, Evanilson also became the first player in Premier League history to win three spot-kicks in the same match.
It only took Bournemouth three minutes before they took a controversial lead.
Evanilson had been fouled by Toti Gomes with a penalty awarded, although O'Neil was insistent the Brazilian had handled the ball before being brought down.
The incident was checked by the video assistant referee (VAR), but the decision stood with Kluivert calmly sending Jose Sa the wrong way.
Bournemouth's lead lasted only two minutes as Wolves equalised through Jorgen Strand Larsen's superb diving header from Jean-Ricner Bellegarde's cross from the right.
But the Cherries, who had lost their past two games, retook the lead with the third goal in the opening eight minutes. The overlapping Milos Kerkez got it, firing into the roof of the net after being played in by Marcus Tavernier.
There was more VAR drama as Bournemouth went further ahead in the 18th minute.
Sa had taken a heavy first touch following a backpass, Evanilson got to the ball first and Sa kicked the back of the striker's ankle.
On-pitch referee Peter Bankes missed the incident, but, after watching the incident on a pitchside monitor, pointed to the spot, with Kluivert converting his second penalty of the match.
Strand Larsen collected Matheus Cunha's pass to pull one back, only for Bournemouth to get a third penalty moment later - Sa fouling Evanilson.
Kluivert again showed his composure from 12 yards to become the first player to score a hat-trick of penalties in an English top-flight game since Ken Barnes for Manchester City in their 6-2 win over Everton at Maine Road on 7 December 1957.
Wolves 2-4 Bournemouth: Gary O'Neil disappointed as 'self-inflicted' errors cost Wolves
Jose Sa was involved in a confrontation with a Wolves supporter at the end of the first half
The loss sees Wolves drop into the Premier League relegation zone, falling below Crystal Palace, who drew 1-1 with Newcastle, to put O'Neil back under pressure.
Earlier this month, some Wolves fans chanted "you don't know what you're doing" at O'Neil when he made a triple substitution in the 2-2 home draw with Palace.
Wolves came into this match four games unbeaten, having won 4-1 at Fulham last time out, but the home fans again showed their displeasure, booing the team off at the end of the match.
There was also an ugly incident at half-time as Sa confronted a Wolves fan, with two supporters forcibly removed from the stand by stewards.
Bournemouth's win comes after two successive defeats and means the Cherries claim a win over their former boss. In stoppage time the away supporters chanted "Gary, what's the score" - with some home fans joining in on a miserable day for the hosts.

Having won four consecutive Premier League away games in November/December last season, Bournemouth have won just three of their last 16 on the road (D4 L9). One of these was against Wolves in April, however.
