Michael Carrick admitted he “can’t make any excuses” for his Manchester United side losing 2-1 against 10-man Newcastle on Wednesday.
Despite playing the entire second period with a man advantage after Jacob Ramsey was dismissed in first-half stoppage time, the Red Devils - who initially fell behind to an Anthony Gordon penalty but equalised just before the break - were unable to capitalise on their chances and eventually succumbed to a well-taken late winner from substitute William Osula.
