Newcastle United 1-0 Manchester United

Matthew Longstaff scored on his Premier League debut to give Newcastle United a 1-0 win over Manchester United.

The 19-year-old kept his composure to hit a low shot from outside of the area in the 72nd minute to settle a tight contest at St James' Park.

Both teams had big chances to score beforehand.

Man Utd's best effort came from Harry Maguire, who headed wide when unmarked at a corner at the end of the first half, while Longstaff hit the bar.

Steve Bruce celebrated his 400th Premier League match as manager with a first win over his former club.

A first home victory of the season lifts Newcastle out of the bottom three to 16th on eight points, one behind Manchester United, who drop to 12th.
