Newcastle scored the latest Premier League winner on record. Harvey Barnes scored a 102nd-minute winner as Newcastle United came from behind three times to beat Leeds United 4-3 in a Premier League classic at St James’ Park. In-form Leeds contributed hugely to a remarkable spectacle on Tyneside and looked as if they would take all three points when Brendon Aaronson’s second goal gave them a 3-2 lead in the 79th minute. Aaronson had earlier opened the scoring to punish a sloppy a Newcastle start, with a hugely contentious Dominic Calvert-Lewin penalty restoring their advantage on the stroke of half-time after…

Following reports that King, 46, and Chatwal, 54, were spotted in Los Angeles together, King’s rep tells Us that the two are “just friends.” “They were at a business meeting,” the rep says, noting that King is “very happy in her relationship” with fiancé Austin Sosa.
