Patrick Dorgu's first goal for Manchester United has given the club a 1-0 win over Newcastle in a pulsating Premier League match at Old Trafford.

Amorim may have learned a lesson in the second half, when a handful of substitutions saw United return to their usual system and lose all control of the game. Thankfully for the boss, Newcastle offered very little threat and failed to make the most of their second-half dominance.

Man United's win over Newcastle on Boxing Day may be Ruben Amorim's most satisfying yet as they overcame a depleted squad.

Newcastle have won just one of their last 12 away league games (D4 L7) - a 4-1 victory at Everton in November. Since the first game in this period (1-4 defeat at Aston Villa on April 19th), the only ever-present Premier League side with fewer away points than the Magpies (7) are Wolves (4).

With a shoestring squad and a tight group of teams in midtable, any dropped points during the festive period could prove to be costly for Manchester United. It'll be even tougher with Newcastle United being one of the teams looking to catch them in the league.
