Newcastle United supporters have hailed their team as the 'real deal' after their 2-0 win over Manchester United saw Eddie Howe's side move up to third in the Premier League.
Goals from Joe Willock and Callum Wilson in the second-half ensured that Newcastle claimed all three points over Man United on Sunday afternoon. The Carabao Cup defeat was well and truly a thing of the past come full-time as the Magpies overtook the Red Devils in third place.
Newcastle were superb in the first-half as they did everything but find the back of the net and Willock himself was guilty of squandering a couple of chances to put his team ahead. The two sides headed down the tunnel level at the break and there were some concerns over the Red Devils ability to come back into the game and punish the hosts for their lack of ruthlessness in front of goal.
