Newcastle United on Sunday leapfrogged Manchester United and consolidated their top-four position in the Premier League standings, with a well-deserved 2-0 home win over the visiting United side.
Joe Willock and Callum Wilson scored for the home side which lifted them into third place in the league.
Both teams have 50 points from 27 games but Newcastle have the better goal difference in the race to finish in the top four and qualify for the Champions League next season.

Eddie Howe’s side dominated play at St James’ Park, narrowly missing the target from several excellent chances. Their persistence was rewarded in the 65th minute when Allan Saint-Maximin’s headed cross found Willock for a close-range header.
Wilson put the game to bed in the 88th minute, heading in a cross from Kieran Trippier.
The victory was some sort of revenge for Newcastle losing 2-0 to Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United in the League Cup final in February.
