Newcastle have played the most of any club in Europeโ€™s big leagues: This is the impact itโ€™s had Eddie Howe's team have played more games in all competitions than any other side in the continent's top five leagues, this is why it matters

Newcastle United are the workhorses of Europe. #NUFC

Newcastle were hanging on โ€“ย then along came Will Osulaโ€™s wondergoal Eddie Howe's side are kings of endurance, champions of getting through. Against Manchester United, they got their reward

โ€œItโ€™s one of the best emotions Iโ€™ve felt, and Iโ€™m sure a lot of people will say the same,โ€ Eddie Howe said. โ€œWe needed it, and we know we needed it.โ€

From hanging on to breaking hard, Will Osulaโ€™s wonder goal is a game changer and a mood shifter for #NUFC

Since the start of 2026 (last 9 games) #NUFC lead the way for the quality of chances created from all Set Pieces and also specifically from corners.

Anthony Gordonโ€™s goal from last night was made by Anthony Gordon winning the ball back, Anthony Gordon running with the ball for half the pitch and then Anthony Gordon winning a penalty, which Antony Gordon scored.

The record books will show that he โ€œdidnโ€™t score from open play thoughโ€ #nufc

Full-time: #NUFC 2-1 #MUFC

A massive win for Howe & #NUFC. The 10 men showed real organisation, fight & determination.

Osula's solo goal was a special, special moment, too.

After 3 successive PL home defeats, #NUFC win.

Some atmosphere inside SJP.

#NUFC 2-1 #MUFC

What a goal this is! & what a moment for Will Osula. A brilliant solo goal. He has been excellent since he came on.

Trippier sends him down the right, Osula stumbles, takes on his man, comes in on his left foot & curls a lovely finish beyond Lammens.

Back under way at St James' Park for the second half, where the scoreline is 1-1.

Joe Willock is on for the home side, replacing Harvey Barnes. Ramsey was sent off before the break.

#NUFC 1-1 #MUFC

Hall concedes a free-kick wide on the #NUFC left, Fernandes centres a cross, Casemiro gets ahead of Hall & nods a header into the ground beyond Ramsdale.

Big boos for the referee as the half-time whistle blew. That was in the 9th minute of added time.

Gordon, who cleverly won the penalty by drawing a foul from Bruno Fernandes, converts from the spot.

10-man #NUFC lead on the stroke of half-time.

Jacob Ramsey is sent off for a second booking. Given a yellow for 'diving'. Looks a bit harsh, although he did go over easily. Had already been booked.

#NUFC are shooting towards the Leazes End during the first half.

2 changes for #NUFC from #EFC defeat, with Nick Woltemade ill & Nick Pope dropped following costly blunder/poor form.

Aaron Ramsdale makes his first PL start since the reverse fixture at Old Trafford on Boxing Day (when he hardly convinced).

Barnes left-wing.
