Chelsea moved into the top four with a narrow 2-1 victory over Newcastle at Stamford Bridge, thanks to Cole Palmer’s impressive performance.

The England forward scored the winning goal shortly after halftime and provided a crucial assist for Nicolas Jackson’s opener. Alexander Isak equalized for Newcastle before the break.

Chelsea dominated early, but Palmer’s initial goal was ruled out by VAR. They persisted, and Jackson opened the scoring in the 18th minute, courtesy of Palmer’s exceptional pass.

Newcastle leveled before halftime through Isak’s close-range tap-in, which stood after a VAR check.

 

Chelsea regained the lead 75 seconds into the second half, with Palmer firing a low shot past Nick Pope. Newcastle pressed for an equalizer but were thwarted.

A late penalty appeal for Chelsea was overturned by VAR, securing the win for the Blues.

This victory boosts Chelsea’s top-four hopes, while Newcastle remains 12th, winless in five Premier League matches.
