Patrick Vieira disagrees with Eddie Howe over disallowed Newcastle United goal

Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira faced the wrath of Newcastle United supporters after claiming the decision to overturn the Magpies' goal was the correct one.

Tyrick Mitchell bundled the ball into Palace's net midway through the second-half, sending St. James' Park into rapture. However, Joe Willock's collision with Eagles goalkeeper Victor Guaita in the build-up led to VAR intervening, and subsequently referee Michael Salisbury overturning the goal.

Newcastle supporters and Eddie Howe felt Mitchell pushed Willock into the Palace goalkeeper, causing the collision. Vieira, however, felt Salisbury was correct to let his team off the hook.
