Manchester United secured a thrilling 3-2 victory over Newcastle at Old Trafford, thanks to goals from Kobbie Mainoo, Amad Diallo, and Rasmus Hojlund. This win brings Erik ten Hag’s team level on points with Newcastle as the race for European football intensifies.
Mainoo opened the scoring just after the half-hour mark, converting a pass from Amad Diallo. Newcastle equalized early in the second half through Anthony Gordon after a sloppy touch from Sofyan Amrabat led to a Jacob Murphy assist.
Diallo restored United’s lead with a powerful strike from the edge of the box, marking his first Premier League goal. Substitute Hojlund then extended the lead, holding off Dan Burn to score just moments after coming on. Although Lewis Hall’s stunning late goal set up a tense finish, United held on for the victory.
Bruno Fernandes played a pivotal role, orchestrating play from a free-roaming false nine position, and was named Player of the Match. This victory gives United momentum heading into the FA Cup final against Manchester City.
