"With the game locked at 1-1 and appearing to head for a draw, Osula, who had only been on the pitch for six minutes, produced a moment of pure magic. Collecting a long pass from Kieran Trippier near the right touchline, the Denmark U21 international embarked on a lung-busting run, weaving past several defenders before cutting inside and curling a magnificent strike into the far corner beyond Senne Lammens."
"Despite playing with a numerical disadvantage for over 45 minutes, the hosts remained composed, with Aaron Ramsdale producing two world-class saves to deny Man United. The match turned on a frantic ten-minute spell at the end of the first half. Newcastle were reduced to 10 men in the 41st minute when Jacob Ramsey was controversially shown a second yellow card for simulation."
"The lead was short-lived, as Manchester United responded in the ninth minute of stoppage time. Fernandes turned provider, whipping in a pinpoint free-kick for Casemiro to power home a header and send the teams in level at the break."
