Manchester United vs Newcastle review

Manchester United fans were sent into raptures as Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring via a tap-in just before halftime. The 36-year-old forward found himself at the right place at the right time as he guided the ball home after keeper Freddie Woodman made a save to Mason Greenwood's initial attempt. However, Newcastle fought their way back in the match in the 56th minute via a counter-attacking goal by Javier Manquillo to make it 1-1.

However, their celebrations did not last long as Ronaldo got the lead back for the Red Devils in the 62nd minute. Put through on goal, he hit a powerful low shot through keeper Woodman's legs. Following Ronaldo's brace, Bruno Fernandes made it 3-1 in the 80th minute with a stunning & dipping long-range effort, while a returning Jesse Lingard rounded up a fantastic team move with a cool finish just before full time. As a result of this thumping victory, it is no secret that Manchester United has laid down a marker. The season is long, however, and only time will tell if Manchester United will be able to live up to their fans' instant expectations.
