Liverpool, the Premier League leaders, drew 3-3 with Newcastle in an exciting match at St James' Park, described as one of the season's best. The Reds twice trailed but were led by a double from Mohamed Salah and looked set to extend their winning streak.
However, a 90th-minute equalizer from Fabian Schar earned Newcastle a deserved point. Former Chelsea winger Pat Nevin called it "one of the best games" of the season, noting how the match ebbed and flowed.
Despite the draw, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester City secured wins, keeping the pressure on Liverpool.
As a result, Liverpool's lead at the top was reduced from nine to seven points, setting the stage for a busy December with potential changes in the standings.
