NEWCASTLE 1-0 MAN UNITED
11. United are right in Newcastle's face on the edge of their box, but Newcastle have closed rank and there's a sea of stripy shirts between United and the goal.

9. Wan Bissaka makes some decent headway down the right wing, he slips the ball to Fred at the top of the box who immediately sends it back to him inside the box on the right.
Wan Bissaka looks to square it to Rashford but Fernandez is on hand to clear it.

8. Lindelof and De Gea are playing the ball around at the back, but Wilson is lurking ready to pounce.

6. James runs from the inside-left to central position on the edge of the Newcastle area.
He seems unsure what to do with the ball and in a panic has a shot- it's weak and wide.

4. Disastrous start for the visitors, they now seem conscious to hold onto the ball and are playing it conservatively between themselves as they work it down the pitch.

2. It's an own goal by Luke Shaw, but credit to Newcastle as they exploited United's defence on the counter.
From a Manchester United throw-in, Newcastle intercept it and Shelvey drove into the United half with explosive speed.
He slipped it through to Krafth on the overlap and as he attempted to cross it to Wilson, it was deflected by Shaw into the back of the net, catching De Gea off guard.
All Solskjaer can do is roll his eyes.

MAXIMIN EFFORT
Speaking ahead of the game, Steve Bruce assured fans that Allan Saint-Maximin was fit enough to feature, despite taking part in a pre-match fitness test.
Asked how close he came to not playing, Bruce said: “He wasn't close to not playing, he was just sore this morning- it was more for his own state of mind, to make sure he was 100 per cent, which he is, so it's all good from that respect.”

CHANGE OF THE GUARDS
Speaking ahead of the game, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer explained what he wanted from the players that he moved into his starting XI.
The Manchester United boss said: “We want a response, of course.
“We want energy, we want attitude. We want lads who fight and play as a team on and off the ball.
“We have to be more compact and put pressure on the ball, we can't give them time on the ball, as they have players that can hurt us.
“When we have it, we have to get tempo on the ball and play as a team.”

SHAKEN NOT STIRRED
Ole has shaken up his starting XI following the thrashing at home, at the hands of Tottenham.
He's made five changes which sees Paul Pogba, Nemanja Matic and Eric Bailly dropped to the bench.
While Anthony Martial is suspended, following his dubious red card, Mason Greenwood is missing from the matchday squad.
Manchester United's midfield looks completely different, with Scott McTominay, Fred, Juan Mata and Daniel James called to start.
But Donny Van De Beek still doesn't get his first Premier League start.

ROLLING INTO TYNESIDE

PARK IT
Manchester United fans have been less than impressed at their club's social media account for their tongue-in-cheek Tweet regarding away days at St James' Park.
Fans are already aggrieved about not being able to attend fixtures during this time and in the United Kingdom they've been dealt an additional blow by having to fork out £14.99 to watch United in action.
United's social media account made light of the fact that fans won't have to sit in the Gods at St James' Park this evening, but their Tweet, which was swiftly deleted, did not sit well with fans.

GOOD EVENING
Ole Gunnar Solskjær will be without Anthony Martial and Edinson Cavani during his trip to Newcastle and there are also doubts about his captain Harry Maguire.
While Martial is serving a ban for his sending off during Manchester United’s thrashing at the hands of Tottenham, Cavani is still in quarantine having signed for the club on deadline day.
Maguire sustained a knock before his sending off for England earlier this week and fellow defender Axel Tuanzebe is not fully fit after suffering a foot injury.
Meanwhile, Newcastle’s skipper Jamaal Lascelles will return to the squad after missing the last two games with a hamstring problem, as will fellow central defender Fabian Schar.
Newcastle have won two of their last three Premier League home games against Manchester United and have started this season well, having picked up seven points from a possible twelve.
However, United will want to bounce back following their drubbing at home against Spurs and will look to their top players who performed well during the international break.
Previously when pressure has mounted on Solskjær, United have responded with a good run of form.
He’ll need his side to deliver more of the same today, as following this evening’s away fixture there are a daunting run of games.
Stick with us this evening and we'll bring you all of the action.
