Newcastle United and Crystal Palace are level at 1-1 following an end-to-end 45 minutes at St James' Park.
Palace led inside one minute when Dwight Gayle, who scored a hat-trick against Walsall in the League Cup during the week, converted from close range after Tim Krul had parried Marouane Chamakh's shot.
Jason Puncheon came close to making it 2-0 after 10 minutes, but the midfielder could only fire high and wide of the crossbar following bright work from Yannick Bolasie.
Emmanuel Riviere had a half chance for Newcastle midway through the first period after strong play from Siem de Jong, but Scott Dann just beat the forward to the cross.
Moussa Sissoko was next to come close for the home team, but his effort was deflected over the crossbar during a dominant period for the Magpies.
Opportunities continued to arrive late in the half through Riviere and Sissoko, but it was Daryl Janmaat that poked home Newcastle's equaliser from close range after 37 minutes.
