Sandro Tonali's early goal gave the Magpies the lead and they ended up facing ten men for over half the contest after Nicolas Jackson was dismissed for an elbow on Sven Botman.

United had to dig in after the break but eventually made sure of the points thanks to Bruno Guimarães' stunning effort in the closing moments on another wonderful afternoon on Tyneside in this superb season.
