Newcastle 4-1 Man Utd as it happened: Magpies outclass limp Red Devils

Newcastle United enjoyed a dominant afternoon against Manchester United on Sunday, completing a double over their old rivals with a 4-1 victory.

The Magpies move up to fourth in the Premier League with the impressive win while Ruben Amorim’s struggling side slip to 14th.

The game was level at the break after Sandro Tonali had put the home side ahead before Alejandro Garnacho neatly equalised on the break.

However, the second half was all Newcastle and they romped to victory as their push for Champions League football continued.

Harvey Barnes scored twice before a disastrous moment for goalkeeper Altay Bayindir handed Bruno Guimaraes a fourth.

There was further pain for the visitors as Joshua Zirkzee was forced off, seemingly with a hamstring injury on a day to forget.
