Amad Diallo notched his maiden Premier League goal shortly thereafter, and substitute Rasmus Hojlund further extended United’s advantage in the 84th minute. Nevertheless, the game’s conclusion was tense as Lewis Hall struck from distance with minutes remaining.
While the Red Devils displayed a much-improved team performance, certain individuals shone brightly, with one player proving to be just as indispensable as Bruno Fernandes.
Bruno Fernandes’ Impact against Newcastle:
After missing his inaugural game for United due to injury and being sidelined against Arsenal over the weekend, the Portuguese maestro returned to the starting lineup against Newcastle.
The influence of the United captain was immediately evident, demonstrating leadership off the ball and assuming responsibility while in possession, as is his custom.
The slight respite allowed the 29-year-old’s creativity to truly flourish while operating as a false nine, delivering five key passes, taking 70 touches, and making two attempts at goal.
Fernandes’ evening culminated with his eighth Premier League assist of the season, providing the decisive pass to Hojlund, although there are concerns as he was substituted while clutching his hamstring.
However, despite his pivotal role, the spotlight was stolen by another attacking force.
Amad Diallo’s Contribution against Newcastle:
After enduring a significant portion of the season on the sidelines due to injury, Amad is finally seizing his well-deserved opportunity in the United starting lineup.
The Ivorian winger made his Premier League debut in the weekend clash against Arsenal, and his impressive performance earned him a starting spot against Newcastle.
From start to finish, the 21-year-old exuded class, displaying attacking intent and making astute decisions.
Manchester Evening News journalist Samuel Luckhurst awarded Amad an 8/10 rating for his display, the highest score shared by any United player, underscoring his exceptional performance.
As evident, the “superstar,” as dubbed by football creator Liam Canning, posed a constant threat and was significantly more involved than Alejandro Garnacho and Mainoo.
Amad’s creativity and desire to influence the game led to Mainoo’s opener, and he showcased his ability to be a direct threat with his four shots, one of which found the net.
Additionally, he exhibited excellent ball retention and technical prowess to evade the opposition’s press, completing two dribbles and only losing possession eight times.
To cap off his nearly flawless performance, the left-footed magician demonstrated unwavering commitment off the ball, completing four defensive actions.
Overall, it will be challenging to dislodge him from the starting lineup after such an impressive display, and currently, he seems destined to feature at Wembley.
