Newcastle United secured a crucial 2-0 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford, condemning their hosts to a third consecutive home defeat for the first time in 45 years.
Goals from Alexander Isak and Joelinton gave Eddie Howe’s side a deserved win, moving them up to fifth in the Premier League table.
The defeat leaves Manchester United in 14th place, just seven points above the relegation zone.
This loss marks a significant downturn for United, who have struggled to find their form in recent weeks.
The team has now failed to score in three consecutive games and has lost four of their last five matches in the league.
Manager Ruben Amorim made a surprising tactical decision, pairing veteran midfielders Casemiro and Christian Eriksen, which ultimately backfired.
He also opted not to introduce Marcus Rashford, despite United’s struggles to find a breakthrough.
This defeat adds further pressure on Amorim and his team, who face a daunting challenge against league leaders Liverpool in their next match.
