A flurry of three late goals sealed victory for a dominant Manchester United side at St James’ Park.
Bruno Fernandes, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Marcus Rashford all found the net in the closing stages to provide a perfect response to United’s 6-1 drubbing by Spurs a fortnight ago.
The Magpies had taken the lead within two minutes courtesy of Luke Shaw’s deflected own goal, before Harry Maguire thumped in a textbook headed equaliser midway through the first period.
The result sees the Red Devils rise to 14th in the Premier League table, just three points off fifth place despite their lowly position.
