"We didn't show up today, we started slow. They pressed us, the crowd were on their feet. We got control midway through the first half and should have scored but we weren't at the races. We weren't good enough, simple as. For whatever reason we weren't good enough. Ultimately we have conceded a sloppy goal. The lads are devastated in the dressing room."
"They fought for their point, a point is what they had in mind. We made a defensive mistake and when they are in front they had only one thing in mind and gave their lives to keep a clean sheet."
"They fought like animals - I hope they take that as a compliment. The gods of football were on their side. It wasn't going to happen for us today. Newcastle gave what they have and what they don't have, that's a beautiful thing in football.

United had four opportunities cleared off the line, and really should have scored at least a couple of goals. Newcastle deserve credit for their last-ditch defending, but United can count themselves very unlucky to leave St James' Park without any points.
Chaos in the Newcastle area, as the ball ricochets around just yards from goal. But Newcastle scramble it away, and that's it! Newcastle have won 1-0 thanks to Matt Ritchie's second-half goal, despite United dominating the majority of the game. A disappointing afternoon for the Reds, where the ball just wouldn't go in.
