An excellent afternoon for the Reds, in the end, despite Newcastle taking the lead. United responded superbly, firing in three quick goals to all but finish the game inside the first period. Anthony Martial added a fourth early in the second period, which offered Ole Gunnar Solskjaer valuable opportunity to rotate the squad and rest several legs ahead of our next match against Burnley in two days.

Just a few minutes left now, and United are strolling to victory. Can we find a fifth?

A final change for our opponents. Schar leaves, and Swedish defender Emil Krafth is on.

The Newcastle substitute is booked belatedly for a late foul on Harry Maguire several minutes ago.
80 MINS
Another save by Dubravka, who collects a clever Mata cross which looked to be about to find the onrunning Paul Pogba. The Frenchman just couldn't get a decisive flick on it.

What a save from Dubravka to deny Harry Maguire what would have been a scorching first United goal. He let fly from all of 25 yards, and it appeared to be heading to the top corner before the Newcastle goalkeeper's intervention.
79 MINS
United are managing the game comfortably here, with Newcastle keen not to suffer a more damaging scoreline and the Reds keen not to over-extend themselves with the Burnley game following hot on the heels of this match.
