10-man Newcastle snatch late win over Manchester United | OneFootball

Substitute Will Osula struck a dramatic late winner as 10-man Newcastle United handed Manchester United their first defeat under Michael Carrick with a 2-1 victory at St James’ Park.

The hosts had earlier taken the lead through Anthony Gordon, who calmly converted a penalty after being brought down inside the area by Bruno Fernandes.

Newcastle’s task became tougher late in the first half when Jacob Ramsey was shown a second yellow card after the referee ruled he had attempted to win a penalty with a dive.

Despite the setback, the home side briefly held their advantage before Manchester United responded in first-half stoppage time. Casemiro made a clever run to the near post to head home Fernandes’ free-kick and level the score.

The second half was tightly contested, with both teams creating chances. Gordon missed a good opportunity for Newcastle, while Aaron Ramsdale produced key saves to deny Leny Yoro and Joshua Zirkzee.

Just as the match looked destined to end in a draw, Osula produced the decisive moment in the 90th minute. The forward cut inside the box and fired a powerful shot beyond Senne Lammens to spark celebrations inside the stadium.

The result moves Newcastle up to 12th in the table, while Manchester United remain third despite Carrick’s first defeat in charge.
