In the 32nd minute, the Paraguayan received a ball in the right zone of the attack and, after a frantic run of several meters, he beat his marker in speed to later define in a sensational way with a left footed shot towards the upper right corner of the Spaniard Guaita, opposing goalkeeper.
Thus, Almirón cut a 438-day drought without scoring a goal in the Premier League: his previous goal for the Magpies in the English league had been on February 6, 2021 with a brace against Southampton.
With the victory, Newcastle reached 40 points (11th position) and was quite far from the relegation zone that it had occupied for several days some time ago.
WHAT A GOAL! Miguel Almirón opens the account for Newcastle United against Crystal Palace at St. James Park.
The Paraguayan winger had not scored with the Magpies since February 2021. HE RETURNED TO THE GOAL!
