Manchester United made it four wins from four under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with a 2-0 victory over Newcastle at St. James' Park that saw the interim manager emulate Sir Matt Busby.

Romelu Lukaku was introduced as a substitute on 63 minutes and less than 60 seconds later had broken the deadlock, pouncing after Martin Dubravka spilled Marcus Rashford's free-kick.

There were some nervy moments in the game for the visitors, but Marcus Rashford secured the points with 10 minutes remaining to cap another hugely-impressive performance from the young England centre-forward.

Rafa Benitez: "We made a mistake for the first goal and then conceded on the counter attack which happens when you play good players. They punish you. We had chances in the first half, you lose 2-0 but we deserved more. If you analyse how we concede it's not clear chances. It's mistakes."

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: "Finally we kept a clean sheet. A very professional performance. We didn't hit the heights that we can do but we were in control, kept plugging away and got the goals."
