Newcastle player ratings: Manchester United (H)

Newcastle United registered their first home win of the season by beating Manchester United 1-0 on Sunday. 

Matty Longstaff’s right-footed shot from outside the penalty area got the better of David de Gea and made the difference. 

Steve Bruce’s side produced a magnificent performance following a few lackluster displays. Manchester United dominated the Magpies in possession but the latter often gave trouble to the opposition defenders and eventually, found their goal in the 72nd minute. This victory will be a confidence booster for Bruce’s side. 

With the win, Newcastle United are now 16th in the Premier League table with eight points to their name. With the international break coming up, the Magpies don’t play their next fixture until the 19th. However, their next opponent will be a tough one they will lock horns with Chelsea who are currently 5th in the Premier League table.

Now, let’s take a look at how the Newcastle players fared against Manchester United.
