    FT: Newcastle 2-0 Man United. Professional performance from the Magpies here as they show United who's boss. A late Wilson goal tops off a great performance all afternoon, with Ten Hag's side unable to create much at all going forward. Thanks for joining the live this afternoon.

  • 65'
    GOOOOOAAALLLLL FOR NEWCASTLE!!!!!! A great team move there. First it was Guimaraes who put a cross to the back post where Saint Maximin was waiting to head it back across goal where Willock was lying in wait to head home from point-blank range.

    Second half has been got underway by the home side.
  • 45'
    HT: Newcastle 0-0 Man United. Great half from the home side in particular there who are unlucky not to be ahead. De Gea is certainly one to thank after he made a great double save to keep it at 0-0. Man United's goalless run continues to two and a half matches.

    One minute added....
  • 41'
    Antony earns United's first corner of the game.
  • 40'

  • 22'
    Antony and Dan Burn caught up in a little bit of a scuffle, resulting in no cards for now.

    Well that was a shocker from Antony. Who's knows if it was a shot or a cross, but the Brazilian's 'kick' goes wide.
  • 16'
    UNBELIEVABLE DOUBLE SAVE FROM DE GEA!!! The Spanish genius first stops the header from point-blank range before scrambling to get the second shot away whilst down on the floor. He knew very little about that second one.
  • 15'
    Isak is just not quite tall enough! The Swede is unable to get his head on the cross.
  • 12'
    Weghorst unable to find the net from a tough angle there, the Dutchman only finds the side netting.

    Newcastle within a hari's width of smashing one home, but Man United flood the box just in time, keeping it away from De Gea.
