Ashley Young capitalised on a late error by Newcastle keeper Tim Krul to give Manchester United victory.

Krul had made a string of fine saves but played Mehdi Abeid’s backpass to Young and the winger finished well.

Manchester United defender Jonny Evans and Newcastle United striker Papiss Cisse appeared to spit at each other in a heated first-half exchange.

Newcastle brought on Jonas Gutierrez in the second half for his first game in 17 months after overcoming cancer.

His was not the only notable substitution, with Red Devils midfielder Angel Di Maria coming off for a second consecutive game after a subdued display.

Di Maria is not the only Red Devils player struggling for form this season and this was another laboured victory to keep them in the top four.

Fellow summer recruit Radamel Falcao was an unused substitute – despite the absence of strikers Robin van Persie and James Wilson.

Louis van Gaal said his decision to opt for Marouane Fellaini in place of Falcao was prompted by the expectation that Newcastle would press their visitors aggressively and Newcastle strived to make an early impact.
