Newcastle managed to secure a 2-1 victory with a penalty from Anthony Gordon and a stunning goal from substitute Will Osula, while Manchester United's Brazilian star Casemiro scored in the first half to equalize. Manchester United legend Paul Scholes criticized his former teammate, interim manager Michael Carrick, after the team's 1-2 loss to a 10-man Newcastle. Scholes wrote on his Instagram: 'Michael is definitely doing something special because United have been flat in the last four games... Stay strong, Sandro Tonali', accompanied by a heart emoji for the Newcastle Italian star, whom Scholes considers better than Arsenal's Declan Rice. Scholes and Carrick played 160 matches together from 2006-2013.
