Newcastle and Liverpool draw 2-2 in Premier League opener

Liverpool and Newcastle United played to a 2-2 draw in their Premier League season opener at St James’ Park. The match featured new managerial debuts for both sides: Andoni Iraola for Liverpool and Matthias Jaissle for Newcastle.

Newcastle took an early lead in the 5th minute through Anthony Elanga, followed by a second goal from Joe Willock in the 57th minute. Liverpool responded via Cody Gakpo in the 55th minute, before Dominik Szoboszlai secured a dramatic equalizer with a penalty in the 99th minute after a controversial foul on Victor Munoz.

The match was also a tribute to the late football legend Kevin Keegan. While Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola praised his team's resilience, Newcastle manager Matthias Jaissle expressed disappointment over the late penalty decision.
