Newcastle 2-1 Man United: Toon shrug off clear injustice to beat wretched Red Devils and end Michael Carrick's unbeaten run in a game that showed how football remains wonderfully unpredictable, writes
Not after having a player – Jacob Ramsey – sent off unjustly for a dive that never was just before half-time. It was when a United attack broke down in the 90th minute that Newcastle wrote the final line of this rather up and down 98 minute story. With Nick Woltemade absent completely – said to be ‘unwell’ – Gordon once again played down the middle and was a threat. Trippier struck a post with a far post cross and Lewis Hall volleyed the rebound over. But it was only when the temperature began to rise and game became fractured that Carrick’s team emerged as a real presence.
