Sadio Mane's goal in the second half ensured there was no joy for Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez, whose Liverpool team won the Champions League in 2005. Manchester United will start next Saturday's game at home to the Merseysiders back in second place if they win at Crystal Palace on Monday. Ki Sung-yeung scored the first after nine minutes and the unmarked Mike van der Hoorn added a second in the 32nd. Since he joined the club at the end of December with Swansea bottom, they have won five league games and lost only two. Sean Dyche's team have never won a Premier League game after falling behind.
