Lovely Newcastle move and another chance. Joelinton goes on a surging run from midfield and finds Ryan Fraser, whose shot from a tight angle is saved by David de Gea.

Bruno Fernandes bundles Fraser over but no penalty is the decision.

Martin Dubravka takes an age to take this goal-kick. It's hard to blame him. It could be a huge half an hour in Newcastle's season.

A Newcastle player is down injured. The home fans whistle as Marcus Rashford plays on and cheers when he loses the ball.

Cristiano Ronaldo was absolutely out of control. He was nowhere near the ball. He is unbelievably lucky to just get a yellow card for that.

Fraser is lucky too as his foot is not planted. If Ronaldo had caught him cleanly he would be sitting in the dressing room.

Manchester United have had four shots, one on target, in each half.

Newcastle have only had one effort - that Allan Saint-Maximin sitter - since the restart.

Martin: Every comment is about how bad United are. Can NUFC and Eddie Howe not get some credit?

Samrat Ray Chaudhuri: Let's forget about playing like and getting the results that the Citys and the Liverpools get. We aren't even doing the basics like passing, defending and heading right. Just awful.

Two Newcastle players leave the ball for each other in a mix-up and Cristiano Ronaldo's rash kick fouls Ryan Fraser and lands him a booking.

Jacob Murphy runs onto a loose ball and Harry Maguire, who has a 20-yard head start, beats him by about two yards.

The half-time subs link up and it's another Manchester United chance. Jadon Sancho runs down the right and cuts it back for Edinson Cavani, who side-foots a first-time effort well wide. He should have done better really.

Eddie Howe clearly sees Joelinton as a midfielder, because he's kept him there even with Callum Wilson off.

It's Allan Saint-Maximin and Jacob Murphy doing some brilliant pressing up front that has the home fans screaming for joy.

Alex Telles crosses from the free-kick and Harry Maguire heads across the box.

It's cleared to Cristiano Ronaldo, who volleys wide.

Manchester United have had more chances in the second half than the first already.

Joelinton just catches Scott McTominay as he tries to get a counter going and is slightly lucky to avoid a booking.

You wonder if Newcastle will end up regretting that miss. It really should have been a goal.

Manchester United have their best chance of the game moments later as Marcus Rashford's swerving shot from distance is tipped over by Martin Dubravka.

It should be 2-0! Allan Saint-Maximin is picked out completely unmarked six yards out but his weak shot is well saved by David de Gea. Good save but ASM shouldn't have given him a chance.

Unlucky for the main man, Allan Saint-Maximin, as he runs onto a ball from the halfway line but eventually loses out to Raphael Varane. He might have tried too many tricks if I'm being honest.

The second half begins.

Ralf Rangnick makes a double change for Manchester United at half-time.

Jadon Sancho and Edinson Cavani replace Fred and Mason Greenwood.

Interesting.

And Newcastle's Jacob Murphy, who didn't touch the ball after replacing Callum Wilson.

Edinson Cavani is too.
