Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, has said his side lost 2-0 to Newcastle United on Sunday, because they didn’t make use of spaces and the opportunities.
The Red Devils suffered their second defeat in three matches at St James Park.
Joe Willock and Callum Wilson scored for the Magpies as they leapfrogged United into third place.
Ten Hag, speaking to BBC Match of the Day, said: “I think it was deserving for Newcastle. They were more determined and had more passion and desire to score a goal. Also, to defend their box, which they did very well. We had the spaces and the opportunities, but we did not use them.
“David [de Gea] made one great save. They had many shots from the edge and we put in blocks there. But we have to stop them before they come into the final third. We didn’t do that well. The blocks were good, but better to stop it at source.”
