(VIDEO) The humiliating nutmeg that Garnacho received in Newcastle vs Manchester United

Manchester United did not achieve the best of results in the match against Newcastle. The team positioned itself significantly as one of the clubs of the moment and the reality is that many expect an obvious improvement in the results of the Red Devil team. However, Ten Hag does not give enough room for his team to improve as expected.

These three points leave the 'Magpies' in fifth place (one below the Champions zone) with 26 points, two more than the 'Red Devils'. United (7th) suffered its first defeat in the Premier in a month, but the sixth of the season, and is also two points behind Tottenham, who visits Manchester City (2nd).

Brighton (8th, 22 points) could also take the lead if they beat Chelsea on Sunday. At Saint James' Park, Newcastle showed themselves to be the only team on the pitch that sought victory and ended up finding a reward with their 17th shot of the game, the fourth on target. Anthony Gordon finished off a cross from the far post from Kieran Trippier (55), who had previously masterfully executed a direct free kick that was rejected by the crossbar of André Onana's goal (39).

The nutmeg that Garnacho received

Alejandro Garnacho is one of the Manchester United players who is experiencing an important day. However, not even his genius was enough for the player to make a difference in the game. In fact, Garnacho was part of a play in which the rival captain, Trippier, made a nutmeg that drove the Newcastle stadium crazy.
