Even with the absence of Bruno Fernandes and a few other key players, the United team was flexible and succeeded by a narrow margin. Newcastle’s game plan was very effective all but their not scoring was the main issue. The Magpies had a couple of good opportunities with Lewis Hall and Anthony Gordon being the closest to scoring, Hall’s shot even hit the crossbar but still, the Newcastle squad couldn’t break the United’s solid defense. The attack of the visitors resulted in several near misses and their failure to score kept the score at 0-0 until the very end. The switch of United to a four man defense and the use of young players have been the main factors that allowed the home team to weather the storm of Newcastle and keep a clean sheet.

The win was a big deal, especially for mental state because United had been going through a roller-coaster ride in terms of form early on in the season besides it being a very important factor in the league position. Meanwhile, Newcastle are still at the bottom of the table feeling bad that they didn’t manage to score despite being in control for a large part of the game. The match, so to speak, was a display of both United’s resilience and Newcastle’s inability to score in what was a very tightly contested game at Old Trafford.
