Newcastle, deprived of his coach Eddie Howe, hospitalized on Friday, logically won on Sunday against Manchester United (4-1) and takes advantage of the counter-performance of Nottingham Forest and Chelsea to go up to third place in the England championship.
Faced with Mancunians who have always been so little inspired, and who had not conceded four league goals for almost a year, Newcastle has made the difference with goals by Sandro Tonali (24th), Harvey Barnes (49th and 64th) and Bruno Guimaraes (77th). The Magpies never doubted, despite the equalization of Alejandro Garnacho (37th).
This fifth victory in a row – which includes that in the League Cup final last month, the first Trophy in the Saudi era – allows the Magpies to get ahead of the qualification for the next Champions League, with two more points than the first unqualified (Chelsea, 6th) and a late match against Crystal Palace on Wednesday. Manchester United, who will receive Lyon Thursday in the quarter-final return from the Europa League (go 2-2) slips in fourteenth position.
